The short answer

The closest alternative to the Sinn U2 S (EZM 5) is the Sinn 857 S UTC ($3,337) — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Christopher Ward C60 Trident GMT 300 at $1,450 (vs $3,802 for the U2 S (EZM 5)) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Erebus Watches Titan is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique ($49,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
