Saw this truck at work and thought it looked cool, is there a mod that is similar?

I made a post on here yesterday comparing the Longines Spirit 37mm to the CW Sealander. I got a lot of good feedback so I’m asking again.

I’m going on a several-month world trip and want to buy my first serious mechanical watch for it. I’d love it to be something I can wear throughout the trip, beat up a little, and hopefully keep for the rest of my life as a reminder of that time.

Im 19 years old and have a 17 cm wrist and usually prefer 36–39 mm watches that aren’t too thick. I like clean Explorer/Ranger-style watches: understated, capable, and a bit tool-like, but not divers or direct homages.

It’ll be used for travel, hiking, beaches, swimming, salt water, daily wear, and maybe some light surfing/snorkeling or cliff jumping.

Ideally I’d like good comfort, at least 100 m WR, decent lume, a screw-down crown, a solid bracelet, and preferably a light dial.

Budget is around $15 - 2000, open to used in Europe/Scandinavia.

I’d really appreciate any honest recommendations — either from these or something I’m missing. Thanks for the help
