[Advice] Watch for LE/Military (alien.top)

Is there a watch manufacturer that makes automatic watches durable enough for law enforcement officers or military? Tough enough to withstand combatives and weapons hitting the face. It was my understanding that automatic movements can’t withstand a lot of abuse. I’m in a LE role and would rather have an automatic watch over quartz.

Any G-shock.

Technically, the Omega Speedmaster was tested by NASA (3x, I believe) to withstand extreme conditions. That makes it, arguably, the best watch objectively speaking.

But, why risk such a beauty when a $100 g-shock will fit the bill.
