The short answer
The closest alternative to the Watchdives WD1016 37mm VH31 Explore Men Watch V3 is the AETHELSOHN Tidal Wave Dial Quartz Watch ($129) — shared caliber (Seiko VH31) and Skin-diver style. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm Fabric Slip-Thru Strap Watch - TW4B15500 at $50 (vs $109 for the WD1016 37mm VH31 Explore Men Watch V3) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Militado 36mm Retro Military Watch VH31/VH65 Sweeping Hand ML14 V2 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VH31) and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Navy Scuba Quartz ($825) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
