Chris is right about the Oris. The TT1 Diver has the same color combo as the SMP. Another brand to consider is Marcello C. Yeah, the name aint great, but the watches look fantastic. Very Rolexy. Look 'em up on www.marcelloc-watches.com. I think it's a US-based dealer. AFAIK, the watches are german made, but I could be wrong. The movements, however, are ETA 2892-A.
Otherwise, if they haven't been released yet in the US, you could maybe hold out for Tag Heuer's new AquaRacer Automatic. I work for a watch retailer here in Australia and the Tag Rep showed me this watch just the other day. It's a nice watch. Again, very Rolex-style, but then the Submariner has influenced the design of nearly every dive watch of the last fifty years. Lastly, check out www.chronomaster.co.uk for a brand called Ollech & Wajs. This company has been making dive watches since the '50s...and yep, they look a lot like the Rolex Sub.
Hope I haven't bored you too much, Bill. Good luck and let us all know what you end up getting.
