The short answer

The closest alternative to the Timefactors Caribbean is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Box Ceramic 41mm Automatic Watch ($705) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Seiko SCVE053 at $207 (vs $517 for the Caribbean) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Smiths CARIBBEAN 1000 PRS-55 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9015) and Same family (Caribbean). Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Marinemaster Marinemaster 1965 Heritage Diver's Watch ($2,800) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
