AP Royal Oak 15400: Ill-fitting deployant clasp and leather strap

All,

I tried on the AP Royal Oak 15400OR on a leather strap today and found the placement of the deployant clasp pressing against the lower part of my radius bone (i.e. the wrist) when fastened uncomfortable.

From searching this forum, I found reference to a shortened strap and also the possibility of reversing the deployant clasp (though I do not believe that would work in this case. To peoples' knowledge, would the shortened strap resolve this issue?

Thank you!
