Strapcode Beads Of Rice bracelet not quite fitting
I just received my Strapcode BOR bracelet and I'm having trouble with the fit on my new Seiko 5 GMT. I really like this bracelet, I think it looks great and it's very comfortable. The trouble is one end of one spring bar won't lock in. It's very close and because of its tight fit it feels pretty stable but as you can hopefully see in the photos (the tip of spring bar tool next to the end of the spring bar is circled), it isn't locked in. Has anyone else run into this issue? Any advice? Thanks!

Life lessons. I usually try the spring bars before I put the bracelet on or use the ones that came with the watch.

I placed the spring bars that came with the bracelet on the watch head after trying to get them to work a couple of times and they fit fine. They are pretty hefty spring bars, though, thicker than the originals. I tried reversing the direction of the spring bars and even changed the orientation of the bracelet itself, with no luck. I will try the thinner original spring bars. Thanks for the suggestion!
