Surprised by BB58 lack of durability for a tool watch

I bought a used Blue BB58 last year to use as my daily beater. I love the watch and Tudor's brand offering in general, but am surprised by the lack of exterior durability for a tool watch.

I've owned it for 6 months and in that time the bezel has gotten stuck a couple of times, and the lume pip also randomly fell out (not covered by warranty). I'd expect a dive/tool watch to be a bit more durable than that. Even the Seiko and Orient dive watches i had in the past never had these issues.

I bought it in good condition from someone I know had a huge collection and hardly wore it. I wear it daily including going to the beach, DIYing etc, but I'm an accountant so it is not exactly getting hard wear and tear.
