And is also the way to avoid running the risk of the strap coming undone!

I have actually tried them both.

Pic 1: Looks nicer

Pic 2: More comfortable, since the buckle is more curved than the inside of my wrist, I find the first example a little bit awkward. The second example also gives a lower "ride-height" of the buckle and thus giving more comfort.
