The short answer
The closest alternative to the Zelos Mako 4 is the Seiko Prospex Sea ($900) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Orient FNR1Q001W0 at $230 (vs $529 for the Mako 4) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Phoibos Great Wall is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9015) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 ($2,372) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
