I've Got Me in My Sight

This was the puzzle that I had in mind when I created my first three set of puzzles; Watchtowers, Self Centered and It's Me Again. If you want an introduction to the constraints, check out their pages. I would estimate the difficulty to be around 3-3,5 stars. Here's the puzzle:
Rules:
- Sudoku: Fill every cell with a digit from 1-9 such that no digit repeats in any row, column or 3x3 box.
- German Whispers: Adjacent digits along a green line must differ by at least 5.
- Watchtowers: A digit in a black star sees another N copies of itself diagonally, where N is the number in the upper left corner of the cell. (For example, a 9 in a black star with a ”4” clue sees four other 9s along the diagonals going through that cell.)
- Diagonal Stars: A digit in a red star sees another N copies of itself diagonally, where N is the digit itself. (For example, a 1 in a red star sees one other 1 diagonally, while a 4 in a red star sees four other 4s.)
Ratings and comments are very much appreciated. Thank you for playing!
Lösungscode: The digits in row 2, from left to right

That was interesting, some coloring and some thinking. Watchtowers seems to have good potential but can probably easily get cluttered, worked well with the whisper lines here though.

I also believe that Watchtowers need help from other constraints to make them interesting. Glad you found it interesting!
