Great choice. Just messin' by the way, having fun...😁 I get like that after trying out new(ish) boubon😉.

Sounds like a good time watching a game at a pub over a few drinks with mates! Should be more of it.

I do get fussy about bracelets, but a little less funnily enough with straps - it's really about comfort then the style then the colour. I do love the rubber straps made by Rubber B and Everest, probably the most comfortable outside of the bracelet for me but really for newer watches - I believe they are made from caoutchouc (French for rubber?) either way, yes, somewhat fussy but always on the lookout for the next best thing in a bracelet or rubber strap - Leather is good but nylon nato not so much.
Some where in my home I have a bag with a few hundred nos straps some of them very high end straps. From time to time I search for the bag of straps with no luck My wife stashes things in storage boxes and I have no idea where they are or what is lurking in the containers

I really like the original blue strap, of course I also like the idea of going with a dark blue gator strap. Anyway that you go though, that's a nice buy.

I like the strap in your 3rd pic the best! I have a big ziplock bag full of different straps and bracelets. I always swap them out to find the one I like best when I get a new watch, hey, thats part of the fun right? I get bored easily, and changing straps frequently keeps my watches feeling new.

On the Way to Going Broke, I had a few straps made by ABP.
This Navy Blue Gator made for my old Cartier was my favorite 😀

Go with the blue, that's the winner. Just maybe update it as previously suggested
