S5 band extremely tight to put in?

Just got my new S5 aluminum and the slot to put the band into my watch is so tight it’s like impossible to get the band into place.

Is anyone else having the same problem?

I noticed that with my new SBSS and sport band compared to my series 4 I still have. Make sure it's oriented right with magnet toward the bottom. Little spit helps.

I know it was being put in correctly. I’ve had every model of watch since S1

I ended up going into the Apple store and they swapped it out for me. They agreed it wasn’t normal too.
