The short answer

The closest alternative to the Thorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V3.1 – Upgraded Bracelet Edition is the Orient Diver Design 40 ($395) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. From the independents, the Thorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V2 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Hangzhou PT5000) and Same family (Explore Watches). Stepping up, the Oris X RedBar Limited Edition II ($2,950) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
