Hi, I am a beginner watch colector who rediscovered watches after getting a Casio Ae1000 and buying one for a present and I am excited to learn more

You're gonna get a billion ideas, so I'd go with whatever you think you'll wear more. All three are good choices.
My first auto was an Orient Mako, but Seiko Series 5 is good too.
Price wise hard to beat the Orient, especially second hand.
My first pay check was booze, cigarettes and general misadventure ! Pleased to see that some people have more sense than I did. All good choices and @solidyetti says get what you will wear more. Remember though first watch you bought and worked for a keeper.
What @solidyetti said. I have both the Mako and Seiko 5 and like them equally but differently. I’d go with whichever you think you’ll get more use out of.
You can get the Orient Kamasu for $230 on Amazon right now.
It might just be me....but I might wait until I get my second paycheck..LOL Enjoy the hobby

thats also today so my budget could change
The Orient Kamasu is truly one of my favorite watches ever, I found mine brand new on eBay for $199.
