I had a few Blu Shark that seemed really nice, however I don’t know for sure as I couldn’t get them to fit between the springbar and the case of my SD4K

I see what appears to be thick straps on these watches, what are you all using for spring bars? None of my straps fit well except Erikas Original MN strap (which are fantasic but a little pricey).

Most of the issues I've read about concerning thick straps are with the higher quality seat belt type weave. Aside from potential spring bar issues, I have a problem with the height of the watch on the wrist with two layers of this under the case. I also find that the tuck back of the strap isn't as aestheticly pleasing. I will only buy seat belt natos that are 1.2mm or less. Currently that's Cincy, but I'm not overly keen on their hardware, Phenome and I'm now waiting on a couple of Moose straps before giving a verdict on them. While not seatbelt weave, Watchgecko has a couple that they use for their MN styled NATOs that are rather nice.
