The short answer

The closest alternative to the Zelos Swordfish 40mm SS 'Flux' is the Invicta Pro Diver 5053 — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. From the independents, the Zelos Swordfish 40mm SS MOP is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Same family (Swordfish). Stepping up, the Christopher Ward C60 Atoll 300 ($1,320) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
