Have you looked at the G-Shock series at all? I understand you're into a minimal approach but as someone who has used multiple G-Shocks in combat that they're pretty much the most reliable watches I've used thus far.
My personal favorite G-Shock G5600KG-3CR. I also I have a DW5600E-1V thats lasted for a long time.
While the W lines are not bad at all, they're a bit more flimsy than the G-Shock series. I owned a F91W (in the super fashionable silver) and the band clasp became unusable after multiple pulls on it by accident (again all while deployed overseas and out in the field). I switch to a G-Shock with a more reliable rubber band and would prefer it any day.
All in all you're basically going to get what you pay for. Unless you live a very safe and easy life, some sort of desk job I'd imagine, where risk is minimal, the W series watches and lower-lower-end references wont last very long in other circumstances.
Here's a similar model. Solar with atomic time. (link)
I personally prefer some of the squarer models, like this one.
