The short answer

The closest alternative to the Buyalov Модстер is the Orient Diver Design 40 ($395) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient FAA02008D9 at $265 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Henry Archer Akva is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical.
