The short answer

The closest alternative to the Cronos Explorer 39mm Diver (L6031) is the Orient Diver Design 40 ($395) — skin-diver style and Visually similar. From the independents, the Thorn 40mm PT5000 Automatic Dive Watch T023 V3.1 – Upgraded Bracelet Edition is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Hangzhou PT5000) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Yema Navygraf Pearl CMM.20 ($1,862) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
