I’m very torn and don’t have a lot of money to spend. It would be my first Apple Watch and I plan on using it primarily at work so I don’t have to worry about my phone being out on the floor.

If you can find a new S7 (doubtful by now but might get lucky) or an S8 on clearance (can be found with hunting for ~$300 USD), you’ll get an AOD, some bells and whistles like O2 and ECG (not a requirement unless you have particular medical reasons), and fast charging. For a watch you’ll be recharging daily, fast charging does matter.
The SE2 is a very good watch, and if the others on sale are a stretch you’ll still be getting a very capable watch. Just please be sure on any purchase you make to get AppleCare, even if you pay monthly for several dollars a month. If you ever bust your watch you’ll be incredibly happy you have it. It also extends the basic warranty, for any hardware failures after that first year of the basic warranty. And if you plan to go swimming, water damage is excluded, but is considered accidental damage under AppleCare.
