Rugged everyday watch (self.watches)

I am working on my PhD mainly doing lab work. When I first started, I bought a Tissot LeLocle Powermatic 80, which I absolutely love. However, in the lab, there's a lot of hazards for an automatic and I started taking it out fairly often. Is there an automatic that's not too expensive (ideally under 500 but sub 1000€ at most), somewhat magnetic and shock resistant? Been thinking that I'd like to get a Diver, but not a prerequisite

Thanks for your help, cheers!

I just got a tag heuer solargraph watch as my every day watch but in your case I would get a nice citizen or seiko watch that can take a beating. I like quartz watches end even better solar versions because you can set them and forget them for decades.
