I agree to the brown strap looking better (if you really have to change it).

Brown dials/bezals and black straps or vice versa, are like brown belts with black shoes..........very uncool......

You should fit a brown alligator or ostrich to that GMT.

A brown leather band or its original jubilee would look best.

Steve,

Not bad, but I prefer the "low light" NATO straps with the black hardware

Nice watch! I think a brown nato or gator strap would look

Have you ever tried a DSSD on? I think you have one of those rare wrists that could pull it off.
