The short answer

The closest alternative to the Swiss Watch Company SWC Chronograph is the Movado Series 800 Chronograph ($1,495) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient 75th Anniversary RA-TX0210L10B at $375 (vs $1,495 for the SWC Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Certina DS Action Diver Chrono is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Blancpain Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback Ocean Commitment I ($26,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
