The short answer

The closest alternative to the Ugly Watch Co 300mD is the Orient Mako-3 AA08 Diver Watch ($375) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. From the independents, the Serket Watch Co Reef Mariana is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle ($2,900) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
