Milanese Loop

[jimpilot]

I have the black stainless band from Apple and have had to return 3 times for black coming off. Has anyone had issue with the black coming off from the Milanese Loop, or found a non oem Milanese Loop that the black doesn't wear off quickly?

I've gotten mine the day they hit Apple stores last spring. The first one had a flaw out of the box. The 2nd one was fine and I've had it since. Still looks brand new 6+ months later. Now it's not my only band I wear but I wear it at least 50% of the time.
