The straps will look nothing like the colors you depict here.
I cannot see anyone picking anything else here besides red.
So I say pink!

I want to wear the enamel, but it is designed for lady. MD decides which be allocated. I hope I can have unisex watch. I hope MD is going to offer me another men enamel watch.

Red looks the best of what your showing but I don't think you have hit the mark with those choices?

Brian, even if you put it on a black leather with spikes and safety pins, punk style, you won't get anywhere near unisex

Yes it is for ladies, but It will be even more nice if I can wear it sometimes.

Understand. There is no possible for men to wear this beautiful red dial. I already ask my AD to register my daughter name and her birthday on the paper If it is ok with MD.

Competition. I am sure red strap is the winner.

Looks best on the original red strap. Whatever you put on it it will look like a ladies watch which you are not so let the ladies enjoy it... :-)

Let the girls enjoy this one Brian. You have the 5088P which is a very cool handcraft piece and the two 5131s. If you are not happy with those I will gladly take them off your hands for a substantial discount

Would look quite silly on a man regardless of strap color.
