I recently bought a pair of conti gp5000 clinchers (Merlin cycles do the pair plus a couple of tubes for about £75) and they are absolutely brilliant, on road and gravel. Not the cheapest granted, but you get what you pay for. The gp4000s I had before that were as near to bulletproof as I could expect to get, only two punctures in the 5,000+ miles I did on them.
Whereas I stopped using gp4000 as I got fed up of the sidewall splitting well before the tyre showed any real sign of wear

It’s strange isn’t it, some people swear by Continentals, while others swear at them.
