Which Colour Leather with Salmon Dial?

I love this watch, almost everything about it. The only issue is a lack of leather strap option. It's my only salmon dial so I'm not sure where to go with strap colour, if it was a standard fit I'd just buy a couple and see which works, but I'm going to have to go bespoke due to the integrated style. I have this black FKM rubber option so I'll rule that out. Which do you think is the better marriage? (*option 3, matching isn't possible due to dial variation but something close)

I think that would be close to my 'matching' option, I hadn't even thought of it until I saw my example online.

I'd go for a dark blue leather myself! Stitching in similar colour with the dial would be even greater. Something like this, but the blued hands help with this option to be honest.

Yes the stitching is a good call. I was torn on the hands when it was released - only the silver/grey dial got the blued hands. But then the blue might not work so well with a black strap, and may detract from the dial itself. Moot point as always since there isn't the option!
