The closest alternative to the Thorn Watchdives 40mm EXD Titanium Diver Watch is the Timex Deepwater Reef 200 41mm Synthetic Rubber Strap Watch ($239) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm Fabric Slip-Thru Strap Watch - TW4B15500 at $50 (vs $129 for the Watchdives 40mm EXD Titanium Diver Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Thorn Watchdives Seafarar WD5513Q 40mm VH31 Sub Diver Watch is the standout microbrand take — same family (Watchdives) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Timex Deepwater Arctic 40.5mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch ($299) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
