Brown leather strap + black shoes?

I only wear black leather shoes, usually Allen Edmonds park avenues & black leather belt. I have a thing for watches and recently got the skx009 (Pepsi) and want to throw a brown leather strap on it. Is it a no no to wear this to this office assuming black shoes / belt? I was also thinking navy blue and red silicon strap, maybe that’s better?

If you really are that kind of person that pays attention to those details then you should know that a gentleman always wears each leather accessory in the same colour (black shoes, black belt, black leather watch strap) just as each metal accessory made of the same material (or at least the same colour like stainless steel, silver, white gold, titanium).

This is a quite traditional rule of thumb that never gets old.
