The short answer

The closest alternative to the Phoibos Depth Hunter Dlc is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($875) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient Sport Watch at $245 (vs $500 for the Depth Hunter Dlc) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Phoibos Depth Hunter is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9015) and Same family (Depth Hunter). Stepping up, the Fortis Flieger F-41 ($2,530) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
