Too Short?

Is the fact that the buckle on my latest nato is not central on my wrist an indication that it’s too short?

Not necessarily.

All depends on the position of the fixed or floating keepers.

I have some nato's where the buckle sits on the edge of the wrist but have plenty of extra fabric on the tuck side.

Pics would help

Yes it is too short

You are on the last notch there. Do you have any tuck away / loop over in the last keeper?
