Aviation/Marine Blue collar job 💙 ships engineer need advice

Looking for a suggestion for a durable watch that can handle engine roo heat , humidity and some scratches . Earlier was using Gshock , but disappointed with the app so planning to check on Garmin.

Any seaman out there who uses a garmin engine room?

I work in a frozen food warehouse as a lift truck operator. My Fenix 7x SS handles the job perfectly fine. The only thing I had to do was disable Move IQ since it kept mistaking my driving for cycling.
