The short answer
The closest alternative to the ZRC 1904 IRIDIUM -METAL is the Breitling Avenger Automatic ($4,900) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT at $1,500 (vs $3,790 for the IRIDIUM -METAL) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Formex Reef 42 mm is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW300-1) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Blancpain Bathyscaphe ($26,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
