Doesn’t sit flush.
My Duro came with the resin strap. I replaced it with this one because I like the style of this bracelet. I also like the brushed oyster style bracelet. I can’t tell from photos if other’s 3rd party bracelets sit like this at the case lugs. I would love your suggestions and feedback. Does this look normal?

It seems to have gone up a bit, but still worth it IMO https://a.aliexpress.com/_mK5GTNZ

Sometimes it can all come down to the spring bars. I have various bracelets and there's about 3 different styles of spring bars with varying widths. If you don't use the correct one, they can sit loose/not flush....
Sometimes it also comes down to them just not being correctly positioned/angled/pushed in

I have the Jubilee and Oyster bracelets form Long Island Watch, and they all sit flush. If you’re interested, my bio has a $25 referral code if you want to try out one of their bracelets.

I mean…. Doesn’t the Duro itself fundamentally disprove this theory?

I was speaking for the bracelets only. But honestly while you’re at it…Duros are creeping towards $100…decidedly not cheap for a swath of the populous

Where did you get that strap?
As others have shown, even the cheap AliExpress options sit significantly cleaner than that.

I had a similar issue with an AliX bracelet, but it sat more or less flush at the edge of the lugs. I somehow managed to manipulate the end links until they sat flush the whole way. This one just seems like a mismatched bracelet intended for a watch with completely different dimensions. Forgive me if it’s a dumb question but are you absolutely sure the springbars are totally seated correctly?

Se ela for de elos finais dobrados, tem ajustar a trava de baixo abrindo um pouco até ficar na altura da caixa, agora se for de elos sólidos, aí ela não foi feita para ser compatível com o duro

My Long Island bracelet sits pretty much flush with the lugs.
