Small quite budget watch collection
Just got a Seiko 5, looks amazing imo.
I know I’m missing a dress watch, but I never wear suits, so it’s a bit pointless.

Your own you way my friend. Great start to your collection here. Take you time adding to it. At least that my two sense anyway. The orient gives a dress vibe btw and you definitely don’t have to get another one if it’s not you style. Don’t do it just to fit the quota if you know what I mean.
I like the collection. You could always get some straps to see how it changes the feel of the watches.

Orient can be dressed up, you’re right. I even have a leather strap for it. But it’s a bit big for a suit (40mm), more business casual or mb something like a blue suit.
Looks great with chinos and a shirt or even jeans and polo / sweater

I gotcha. 👍🏾
Nice collection basic and simple keep it that way. Who needs a dress watch. 😹
I don’t really do dress watches either for the same reason.
If - down the road - you pick up the odd vintage watch then their dimensions tend to be smaller and they do nicely in place of a dress watch.
Definitely not suggesting you rush towards vintage watches as they can be a minefield but over time you may get there and personally I would rather have a cherished vintage watch (e.g. the one below which can easily be dressier with a strap change) than a pointless (for me) dress watch.
That #seiko gives a nice addition of color to your collection

I really want some vintage watches, but where I live there is no market for them it seems, they are like 2x more expensive than everywhere else. One day though for sure 😉
Btw, beautiful watch
