My pick for a budget 3 watch collection.

Dress watch - Tissot Everytime ($150 new)

Drive/everyday - Orient Kamasu ($200 new)

Weekend/tool - Seiko 5 SNK809 ($60 new)

I have other watches that are more expensive but damn, these just do it for me. I don't have to worry about scraping, scratching, or messing these up as much as the more expensive ones.

It was actually the SNK809 and SNK807 for $120. I ended up putting the 809 on a nato strap, and the 807 on a leather strap but butterfly clasp.
