Need help/opinion on some green dials.
I need to add a green dial watch into my collection. I have narrowed it down into three options 1. Tissot powermatic 80 silicum - quite a burden on my pocket!

2. Seiko presage open heart green - https://seikowatches.co.in/collections/presage/products/seiko-presage-cocktail-time-grasshopper-ssa441j1
3. Orient kamasu 2 green. It's the most affordable of the lot but costs 100 usd more in india.
Wanted to get your view on a balance between dial, cost, movement quality, accuracy, durability in the long term. Does anyone know about the longevity of Tissot silicium?

The Tissot, it's much nicer looking, and better spec'd. You're also less likely to run into QC issues with a Tissot than a Seiko.
Tissot for me. More of a GADA watch, good for casual, office and ok as a dress watch. Powermatic 80 used in numerous Swatch group watches and proven to be pretty reliable and in my experience accurate.
Seiko looks a bit too much of a dress watch to me with the open heart and that bracelet. Unlikely to be as accurate as the Tissot IMHO.
The Orient I‘ve got no experience of.

That damn Tissot is a substantial chunk out of my monthly salary. I was hoping for the others. 😂
There‘s nothing wrong with the green Kamasu. I would probably pick it from those three.
I’d go Tissot. mainly because I like the brand more than Seiko, but also because it has the date, and doesn’t have an open heart.
Keep it clean and sharp with the Tissot :)

Damn it. This looks good too.
I've got the green Tissot myself, it's super green all right! Biggest bonus I found is the time keeping is a few seconds a day plus in my case, and the watch iself isn't too blingy, so watch can be quite an everyday watch I've found, enjoy👍
That Tissot with the cross hairs - lovely.
