Apple Watch responding to my sleeve rubbing it

I am an active duty military police officer. I wear my watch everyday. The problem I am having is when I’m in uniform my uniform rubs the screen. This turns on my music or zooms stuff in. Essentially my watch wigs out all day because it thinks my sleeve is a finger. Can I turn this one so it only accepts my finger? Or possibly a different solution for this?

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 5

I would suggest you use your water 💧 lock. This prevents touch’s on the Watch screen
