Leather keeper on LPP

Just got my new LPP pilot and it's great (see pictures under "pulled the trigger"). One question - the first keeper is tight, and I mean really tight when I feed the strap through. Is this normal, as it will stretch over time? I haven't bought a leather strap iwc before, just want to make sure I don't damage it pulling the strap through it. Thanks. Andy.

Hi!

Mine was fine not too tight not too loose.

I've switched to the bracelet, and highly recommend it. Very comfortable and looks great with the lpp.
