Starter watch for An1

Would like some recommendations for a starter watch for my first year. Looking at like 250-$500 for budget? Ik next to nothing about watches so any help is appreciated. Just want something nice that I can wear to office and out but isn’t too flashy

unrelated but why even spend $200-$500 on a watch right now, just buy a nicer watch after bonus. to me spending money on something you intend to replace in a short amount of time is a waste of money. Just buy an apple watch and upgrade after bonus. idk, just my thoughts, curious to hear others opinions.

Good non standout watch with great looks, 

Anytime you work past 3AM, you leave your watch glass smashed with what time you logged off set for the arms. then go buy another one of these watches and repeat. the watch is 12 dollars you are a big investment banker in the big finance. Buy these bulk, thanks
