Plus 1 on the black. It's a nice contrast with the butternut/mustard frame.

Just remember while you are imparting this beausage, do not wear your

I vote for the black saddle. (Looks better against the frame's color.)

Brown, it ages more than black. The wear areas become your fingerprint.

 The brown saddle clashes with the mustard frame.  At least for me.
