Have you tried it with the antique nickel hardware? I like both the brass and the black hardware on your choices for the reasons stated above, but it's always nice to look at all the options. Here is a picture of what I ended up ordering with the nickel hardware. Black glove tanned with oxblood straps and burgundy suede lining. The stitching color doesn't bother me not matching the hardware. View attachment 3777200
Also, just to give you an idea of the difference between burgundy and oxblood here are some pictures of the Coach burgundy bags next to my 1st gen oxblood Rogue. View attachment 3777201View attachment 3777202
I did try it with the nickle hardware just to see, but the stitching being yellow would bother me. Your 1st generation rogue looks amazing. Definitely more brown than burgundy there. I'm hoping the newer ones look a bit more wine colored.
