Last year I started to look into watches. at the moment I have about 5-7 Watches I cicle through the week. Now with my Birthday and Christmas coming up I'm looking for a new one. I bought two "hommages" to see if the real watch would suit me and those two are up for Debate.

Seiko Presage Cocktail Time SRPE45 I really love the green dial with the gold numbers. And also the brown strap that comes with the watch. Only thing that's holding me back is the Silver Casing clashing with the gold. Can get it for around 400€

Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 Nothing to say here. Really liking the integrated Bracelet and the waffle pattern on the dial. Can get it for around 675€

Any Input I'm missing? Is one substantially better in terms of build quality than the other? Anything I'm missing out on ?

Seiko Presage. I regret buying PRX, imo it looks cheap

I really like the Design on pictures but the Dial on the Seiko is just too gorgeous to skip it...:-/ though one

Cocktail time 100%. It’s a beautiful watch.

My experience with my wife's Tissot, it's a quality watch that will handle daily wear for decades.
