The short answer

The closest alternative to the Farr + Swit Best Lume Dial Watch is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($875) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Orient Classic Watch at $245 (vs $499 for the Best Lume Dial Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Erebus Watches Origin is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1965 Heritage Diver's Watch ($1,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
