ROO Diver Strap hole position

Anyone wear the short strap version and on the second hole? I find this the most comfortable for me, it is a little loose but okay. The third hole is tight especially after my wrist expands.

The awkward part is that on the second hole, the strap tail is too short. The "second" loop does not don't hold it down. Some times the loop just hangs not on the strap.

I noticed the AP store manager had his watch set up like this as well. Do you guys have this issue?

Thanks

7” wrist, second to last hole - mix of short strap and regular strap. Fits perfectly for me (but every wrist is different!)

Thanks! Do you have the "second" non fixed loop just dangling?

Get both straps and mix them up. I have the loop problem on mine but its not a big deal.

Can I use a 1.4 and 1.6 screwdriver to swap the straps? Had the AP store do it last time but am thinking of tackling it on my own.

Thanks

2 x 1.6 screwdrivers is what I use.

Tried removing the screws this morning, no luck.

I used a 1.4 and 1.6, I see the screw turn (turning side) but not on the other side. However was not able to get the screw out. Anyone know why? It just unscrews right? No push or pull?

I'll take it to the AD today to swap. I suspect it is because I did not use two 1.6 screw drivers. Weird since I can see one of the screws turn...
