Dress Pants with Polos: What's (not) working?

Guess who is going back to office!

I am attaching a collage with three images (all minimalist, no watch). I am pairing my navy blue dress pants (wool-viscose blend) with three Polos: a grey (Supima cotton), a violet (Supima cotton), and a magenta (thick cotton but not Supima).

The grey and violet Polos have a different type of collar (you can see the difference compared to the magenta Polo, which has a more traditional collar).

My work dress code allows Polos and Chino combinations as semi-formal wear, but I want to dress up a notch by pairing my Polos with dress pants. I will complete the look using dark brown lace up dress shoes. Since it is pretty hot (100F) outside, I won't bother layering. Of course, I will wear a brown leather strapped watch as a mandatory accessory.

Let me know if any/all of these work for my intended purpose. I don't want to come across as an oddity based on the sloppiness of the attire.

PS: I have folded the hand sleeves in the violet Polo as I thought the the sleeves are a bit on the longer side.
