Doubly frustrating as I bought a polished Steinhart buckle to go with it.
I know the cure, other than putting up with it, which is to fit a slightly shorter buckle. Must do some research.
You beat me to the answer, as that's what I typically do. Shorter or longer buckle often works. I keep a variety of spare buckles for just that reason. One that I find often works is the Hirsch sport buckle. It's not only slightly shorter than most buckles, it sits at the perfect angle so that the buckle sits with no gap against the strap (nothing to catch on pockets etc). Watch Obsession sell them as separate items. Can't guarantee it'll work, but they're a good buckle and I have them on the majority of my leather straps...
Good shout Gary. I've got a few Hirsch buckles but not, perhaps, a 22mm.
One advantage of these will be no incorrect watch branding.

Hope that's yours as I can't see mine leaving the collection anytime soon as its hardly left my wrist since I got it. If I had bought it years ago my collection would be very different.
