Not so great for large wrists though. I also found the two (2) I have to fit a little loose. They kinda wiggle and "snap."

What brand straps are you sporting and how large are your wrists? The straps I've posted above are Maratac from The Military Watch Resource, which have a solid fit on my 7 3/4" wrist with 5 additional holes to expand from.
JD,
Maratac, bought from CountyComm. My wrist is 8.25 inches. Both were installed on Seikos which use a "fat" spring bar as opposed to the "standard" ones that they are equipped with. The difference in size of the spring bars may account for the play at the lugs. When I strap it on, I have two (2) holes left.

Well...I know not to argue with anyone swing'n 8.25" wrists! Haha! I think you're right about the spring bars being a possible factor. All of my straps are currently on solid "screw cap" bars common to these big 1000M divers I have. Plus, I'd venture to guess that the more strap material needed to encircle your wrist, the more chance of "play" being a factor. Love your avatar by the way... :)
