The short answer
The closest alternative to the Whitby Watch Co. Alpine Automatic Dark Side is the Seiko Prospex Sea The Black Series ($765) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Deepwater Meridian 200 44mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch at $299 (vs $605 for the Alpine Automatic Dark Side) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the La Touraine Seafarer is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9015) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Breitling Superocean Automatic ($5,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
