I'm currently looking into getting a first watch, I'm 22 and a male. My budget is up to 500$ if it's a watch I really enjoy the way it looks it may get slightly higher. I've been looking around and have found some watches I like the looks off such as, [Swiss Military By Chrono Solothurn ref number SM30200.03]. [Boss skyliner], [Boss admira]l, [Seiko 5 sports]. These are watches I like how they look I've heard a fair bit about designer brands not being good? so I'm unsure of boss. Are there any recommendations I should look into? and lastly what size should it be?

Victorinox watches are decent, the model 241905 would be an improvement over the "Swiss Military" watch

Off track question, Is victorinox, Swiss Military? I'm so confused about those two is it two separate brands or what's going on?

Different companies, victorinox is a known supplier to the Swiss army. I have an INOX watch that is very good.

Swiss Military (the company) seems to have just registered it's name as such and is using the confusion to sell its watches
