Looking for a good digital vernier caliper

Looking to upgrade to a digital vernier caliper, can you recommend one?

Needs to be smooth when slid, accurate, measure up to 5-6 inches, choice of metric and imperial reading, measure internal and external and I would prefer it to have a protective case.
It will get used where there are all sorts of fluids, oil, cutting agents, mentholated spirit.
Any other things it should have?

No idea on how much money, I don't need a Rolls Royce a Mercedes will do but I would look at a Ford if you get my drift.

I think a member here has this one or at least this make. No idea where this sits in the quality range
