The short answer

The closest alternative to the Timex Expedition Rugged Core Analog 43mm Resin Strap Watch is the Timex Expedition Gallatin Solar 44mm Fabric Strap Watch ($107) — same family (Expedition) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Casio MRW-200H at $40 (vs $87 for the Expedition Rugged Core Analog 43mm Resin Strap Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Kleynod Men's watch KLEYNOD Ukrainian Force, КT-807.SL is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Bulova Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Marine Star Heritage 98B451 ($995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
