I have a hardlex crystal in my skx007 , I wear this watch to work every day and it gets a hard life... it gets knocked, bumped dropped,covered in fuel/oil and all types of grinding dust...
The crystal has held up remarkably well considering the abuse it gets,I am about to replace it because I was cutting titanium and hot metal shards have embedded themselves in the crystal and it is now rough to touch!!! I'm going sapphire upgrade this time but I think for normal every day use a mineral/hardlex crystal should be fine...
Hope this helps
