A black strap would look nice on your GMT. Either one of your preferences should work.
Nice watch too and welcome to the forum !!!

I'd suggest a simple, elegant strap in shell cordovan. Tough water-resistant leather that ages beautifully, and compliments the go-anywhere/do-anything nature of this classic GMT. This leather is dressy enough to work with suits, yet cool enough to be casual too.

Welcome to the Forum -
Either strap - black - will look sharp! |

The black looks great. I think I might go that route when I finish my 1675 project.

If you want it to look like a Rolex get the jubilee fixed. Will look like class.
