I'm very new to the watch community, I've only been researching and watching videos for the last 3 weeks, but I need help finding the perfect watch. I have a budget of $200, I'm looking for something that can be worn all the time but I also want it to be classy, like a Seiko 5 but I would also prefer it to be a quartz watch.

I'm not sure if this perfect watch even exists but I'd appreciate the help regardless. If there really isn't anything that matches what I want, feel free to drop your favorite watches under $200, maybe I'll change my mind

Go take a look at the Citizen eco drive range.

They all use a solar powered quartz movement that is pretty much worry free sand one of the most reliable options out there, and come in a wide range of styles within your budget. Pretty much my default recommendation for a simple, no non-serviceable watch on a budget.

Failing that you are looking at options like the Seiko ranges (again, they do a range of solar quartz movements that should fit your budget), and various Casio and Timex models.
