    I think it's a terrible idea; I really can't see that working, other than to look odd.
    I don't 'do' yellow metal and I'm not that much of a strap person either, but in this case (as the original bracelet has been ruled out) I'm inclined to agree with other suggestion of dark brown leather strap.
    Or just leave it on the one it's on: It looks worn enough to have lost any 'bling' so I don't think looking ostentatious is of concern.
    Some people have opinions - The rest of us have taste.

    Black metal bracelet with gold bezel watch?

    Well, here is the watch, on the black bracelet. I can't say I like it a lot. I can say it's comfortable, and it looks better than the worn aftermarket gold one that came with the watch.

    I think it would work better with flat links. But I'm not keen on buying a series of bracelets to maybe find one I prefer over the others.




    Below: a possible contender, with flat links. Comes with straight and curved end pieces. Autulet brand, which I found on Amazon.
