The short answer

The closest alternative to the Squale Matic S is the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro 300 ($1,095) — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1). If price is the constraint, the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Bronze 39mm Automatic Watch GL0517 at $1,550 (vs $1,525 for the Matic S) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Circula Watches AquaSport II is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Norqain Adventure NEVEREST 40mm Limited Edition ($5,028) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
