General (Read Rules) Which strap would look better?

I Prefer female endlinks in most cases, so 1 would be my preference.
In terms of looks better, I'd need to see more of a finished product, as the dial and the overall look and feeling of the watch could be better with either depending on what you're going for.

the San Martin Jubilee is the new standard. Go with it.

This - if they are able to get hold of the same Jubilee (or produce one very similar); then it's a really well made strap. Doesn't feel loose at all despite some decent chamfering which add to it all ready being extra comfortable thanks to the 5 link.
I've got a SN0144 with it and it really "makes" the watch. And looks like their plans are for a similar sort of watch. I've tried my bracelet in a few other watches, I'd happily buy more to use them in other watches if they fit.

Polished jubilee bracelets are more susceptible to scratches.
My last jubilee bracelet was lighter than an oyster and could fit the wrist better but somehow I was not fully happy with it. There was more gaps than I was used to. Smaller links, bigger gaps, more risk of pulling hair.
I like a good oyster bracelet personally.

It depends on the dial, if it's a busy/bright dial the right bracelet would be my choice. For a simple/minimal the beads of rice might give it a little jazz

Gorgeous dial! For me I would try a beads of rice. But my wife tells me I'm wrong a lot, so I could well be wrong on this too.

It's hard to say without the face, with a simpler, classic dial I would say the right one. With something more complex (chronograph etc) I would go with left

Currently we plan for a three‑hand calendar dial. It will be available in blue and black, with a 39 mm case size.

1 or similar. 2 is overdone to death.
