The short answer

The closest alternative to the Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Blue is the Marathon Jeep Willys SSGPM ($780) — shared caliber (Sellita SW210-1) and Vintage revival. If price is the constraint, the Orient SK Diver Retro (Revival) at $325 (vs $695 for the The Cincinnatus Blue) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Cincinnati Watch Company Rust Red Enamel over Hammered Finish is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW210-1) and Vintage revival. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT Watch ($1,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
