Size of connector on 78790 bracelet ?? Not 2mm?!

I just picked up a new 78790 (non SEL) bracelet from my AD. I thought the beak connector would accommodate 2mm spring bars, but seems it is for 1.8mm. I have an SEL version on my 16570, and that is a 2mm bar. And thought these came on other sport models that utilize 2mm bars?

Any ideas why this doesn’t take a 2mm?

The 78790 bracelet was used on the GMT and Exp II models; they are all 2.0mm spring bar models.

The "beak" may have been hammered down somehow, but should be easily opened up.
