My suggestion is to get a Seiko diver with the 7S26 movement. The SKX-007 is a good example. This watch is about $170 and is as close to indestructible as you can get. It has nice large luminous dial markers, day-date, and unidirectional rotating bezel. It comes in either a black dial, or the rare orange dial version ($180). Both are pictured at the link below. Wayne Lee is an excellent guy to deal with, because neither of these watches are available in the US.
But since you already have the G-shock, that's about the toughest watch you can buy.
