Any specific reason you would choose one over the other?
Presage. The most interesting dials for the price and enough variations for anyone to like. I especially like the cocktail time Negroni.

I agree! I'm a huge fan of the mojito dial!
I picked the Tissot because Seiko has so many QC issues. Their high beat has regulating issues also. And yes there is always that one guy that says his is really accurate but overall performance is not great.

Do you think the same goes for the seiko 5 srph29?
This question is like asking whether hot dogs or ice cream is the better food, meaning you are comparing different categories.
The selling point of the Seiko Presage is the dial. If you love that look, that's what you get, with few other frills.
The Speedtimer is a relatively expensive quartz watch. From a functional perspective it is hard to beat.
The PRX is a somewhat edgy design with an integrated bracelet, which is a look you really need to like. The 40mm version may be tricky to pull off depending on the wrist size. I do like my 35mm quartz version, but it really is a one-trick pony, and it is all about that retro design.
If this is a question about a first watch you wear every day, I would go with the Speedtimer.

If you want one look at it in person so you can see if there are any misalignments on it. The factory specifications for Seiko are not as tight as the spec's on the ETA movements Tissot uses.

My Seiko is really accurate

If its under warranty and goes 20 seconds slow or fast then your out of luck. Most are really close but not all.

When it comes to the mechanical one at least
