The short answer

The closest alternative to the Patek Philippe Grand Complications 5236 is the Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5968 ($61,766) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the A. Lange & Söhne Odysseus covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Beijing Watches The Great Wall Watch 41mm is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Lumen ($530,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
