Do you have a link to any of those curved straps?
After looking at this picture (from the product link)
I understand what you mean with "curved". Simple answer is that it will not work and you need to find something similar that works with a standard pin.
Yes, that's the short answer.
I am pretty sure that there is possible to modify the strap or the springbar and it will work.

There have been discussion about removing the spring bars from the Epix2 and even if it is possible it requires force or special tools:

Even if parts of the quick fit is possible to remove from the original strap I don't see how the strap itself can be modified to fit a curved spring bar:
I can't remember if I saw it on these forums or on Reddit, but someone posted instructions of how they modified the quickfit attachment to attach the Marq strap to a Fenix 6. That should at least get you started if you want to go down the path.
I'd suggest searching specifically in the F6 forum and on Reddit maybe you can find the post.
It doesn't work, I tried it before selling my Marq. The space between the epix lugs and watch body are too narrow. It's a shame since the form fitting is so much better with the curved ends.
