Thanks for the feedback.
About the 6119R and straps, if it was for myself, I would go to a strap maker and have a full look at their offerings (even the ones I don't consider in the first place). If you're too far away from a shop, I would consider Suede (even if I think it may not age very well) with:
Electric blue (works very well with yellow and rose gold)
From dark to medium to light grey
Caramel/beige
The choice of the right nuance might make the difference from nice to... not nice.
Ostrich or Shark materials might look nice (although require a little time to get used to) and more casual.
