I'm afraid you've lost me with the black hands and PVD bits. I think matte steel would look MUCH better. Black hands on a black or brown dial makes no sense to me.

The color is subjective, and it is very hard to please everyone, but black hands on black dials, or brown dials is nothing new, or strange. I just installed black hands on a black dial Sea Devil, and they look great. I also installed black hands on my BRG moray and it also looks great.

Here are some examples

brown dial and black hands:
