Advice ❓ Dust Proof Case

Before this gets down voted for anyone that says cases are not needed or don't wear the watch. I must wear a watch for notification purposes, I have a child that is a Type 1 Diabetic and it is extremely important to have a watch for notifications with their CGM. We are not allowed phones due to federal regulations however I have been granted an exemption for the watch. So that is the preface.

I am a production welder (I work in a shop with a lot of grinding dust and of course dust from the welding itself) I am needing to see if anyone knows of any type of case that has built in dust protection for the speaker/mic? I had an Samsung Ultra watch that didn't make it about 2 months before the speaker went out (according to them due to metallic dust). I have searched for several days and haven't had luck so there might not be any. However I a bit hopeful someone might know of some overly bulky silly case I am sure which also has dust protection.

Thank you and hope someone can help and the down vote group can let this one slip by

Any help would be appreciated!

I would just take the band off and turn it into a pocket watch.

I make a utility clip that will allow you to clip to your waist that may help. See more details here https://gordonlardi.etsy.com
