I want a watch I can wear everyday that is versatile with everything I wear, problem is eBay has a billion results and I dunno which one I should be going for.

I don't want to spend anything more than 30-40 bucks on a Timex.

Please help me out guys.

Don't bother with vintage; it's very hit or miss unless you know exactly what you're looking for. A Weekender or an Easy Reader should suit you well if all you need is a cheap watch to wear with everything.

Yeah, the Seiko 5 line is an excellent value. Solid choice.
