New-ish to watch collecting. I am also dabbling in repair and re-sell. I run a YouTube channel for watches and one for all things tech. Watch channel: https://www.youtube.com/@laststopwatchchannel Tec...

A G-Shock
I'd probably be on the lookout for a vintage Seiko Type II Quartz. They're really well made watches and there are some nice examples available in that price range. I just recently got this 7546-6000 for 138 USD.

I'd pick up a vintage Seiko Skyliner. The 6000 series manual wind movement and classy looks with modern 38mm sizing really seals the deal for a cool vintage pickup!
Seiko5 SRPE DressKX
A Kamasu!
4 Marathon ADANAC GPM's, once they stop making them you have a one plus extra for you, then two more for rare gifts!
I'd buy a Timex Atlantis.

Vaer quartz field watch in 40mm
Something vintage that was just fun… or something watch related/adjacent. Honestly, I’d probably end up saving my money because I am boring 😂 Good luck hunting!
Just straight Casio. Enough said.
Swatch Moonswatch
A vintage Seiko
A vintage something from the 50's that my grandfather's may have worn.
How about a thin Swiss Made 200M dive watch with a Sellita SW200-1 powering it and a sapphire crystal?

Primary use?
Any G-Shock
Used Seiko , whichever floats your boat.
Actually I avoid buying from ebay (just can't trust).
But in general with 200 bucks I would go for
Orient Kamasu
or
Citizen BN0200 / BN0201
or
Bulova Precisionist 96B158
I’d buy something quartz from Vaer. They are one of the best values out there right now.
I’d get an orient bambino
