Honestly, as a bracelet guy I like this on the strap. Beautiful ribbon dial by the way!

The right texture black leather can pair nicely with slightly patina black dial. Both look great.

I tried my Flightmaster on several leather straps and it just didn't look right..... it looked unbalanced and bulky........Where as steel gives it a more blended and balanced appearance hiding it's bulk.
Those horrid stretchy "old man" bracelets are a crime against humanity, god, horology and good taste...........tying the watch on your wrist with a frayed and mouldy, old bit of bailing twine would be an aesthetic improvement on those things!
