The short answer

The closest alternative to the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle is the Longines HYDROCONQUEST ($2,000) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Seastar 1000 at $875 (vs $2,900 for the Aquis Date Upcycle) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Phoibos Apollo Titanium is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Mariner Memovox Stainless Steel ($23,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
