@Vladv1 Your post is a mess! Please sort it out. Sentences 1 and 2 should be on their own lines. Are you sure you mean "it" when referring to two sentences? There should be a space after every full stop. Use the edit function to fix it all.

I think (2) becomes a lot better, though perhaps not 100% satisfying, when "suddenly" is actually added to the sentence:

2a. I saw him become suddenly amazed.​

Something more descriptive would work better here. Perhaps:

I saw his eyes widen in amazement.
