Thoughts on this watch as my first decent watch, to wear with suits/odd jackets? Would a brown strap be more versatile?

Yes, and yes. If you like it, get it, and an alternative strap is a cheap addition.

That sir is a good looking watch.
Can you provide any feedback on it?
It was on my radar but I've picked up 3 divers in the past 6 months so I think im good for a while.

^ Sure. I've had it since September last year and it's been my daily wearer ever since. Best fitting watch I've ever had, and keeps very good time for an automatic (it has a Seiko automatic movement inside it). The matte ceramic bezel and raised (but flat on top) sapphire crystal give it the best looking profile of any watch I've owned. For a watch that only costs $US355, you get an awful lot of watch for the price. I love it!

I can't decide between a seiko or an orient diver....ARGHHH. Both sides seem to passionately love their wartches...

This. I side with Seiko largely because they are such classic and iconic designs.

Like what? I love Seiko for their quality but have a hard time finding nice dials.

I think this is very nice (would put it on a leather strap):

Or for something sportier:

Or if I was looking for a diver:
