The short answer

The closest alternative to the Vaer D4 Meridian Solar is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($515) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Casio MDV-106 Duro at $85 (vs $399 for the D4 Meridian Solar) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Elliot Brown BLOXWORTH is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Yema Superman Slim CMM.20 ($2,372) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
