Mini bike pump recommendations for bicycle commuting? (sh.itjust.works)

Does anyone have any recommendations for tiny bike pumps to keep on my commuter? Durability is preferred, but I don't want to break the bank if it gets stolen.

Having used quite a few different bike pumps I chose one which is made of metal, has a hose and pressure meter, it is basically a mini floor pump but the size of a hand pump (slightly longer but more narrow). Mine is Moon Aiolos Gauge MFP but eg Lezyne has similar models. Screw-on adapter can be problematic with presta valves because some models tend to screw the valve core out when you remove the adapter, but I've never had that problem with mine. Here's a review of the pump. Basically don't need a floor pump either when I have this.
