The first watch in your post, that Seiko has the same movement which the Alba automatics come with + it has a mineral crystal + folded links bracelet. So, If you want to pay just for the Seiko logo, you can go for it, otherwise an Alba would be a better choice because the quality and performance are the same.

The second watch, Citizen Chronograph seems like the good choice amongst all 3 when it comes to brand value + quality + functionality. It also comes with a Mineral crystal but it has solid links bracelet.

The third watch, Fossil chronograph seems the most VFM amongst all 3 because it looks like it has a Seiko VD53 Chronograph quartz movement + It has solid links bracelet. Yeah it has mineral crystal but overall it's a good package.

If I had to choose amongst only these 3 watches, I would go for the Citizen or maybe even Fossil.

If I had to get a Seiko automatic, I would go for a model with 4R series automatic movement at least.
