Frequently Asked Questions
Which Apple Watch models is this Milanese Loop compatible with?
This band fits 38mm and 40mm Apple Watch models, including Series 1 through Series 5 and SE (first generation) in those case sizes.
How does the magnetic closure work?
The entire length of the band is magnetic, so you simply wrap it around your wrist and press it against itself at any point for a secure hold. There is no buckle or clasp to fumble with.
What is the PVD coating on this band?
Physical vapor deposition (PVD) is a finishing process that applies a thin, durable layer to the stainless steel, giving the band its gold color while adding resistance to scratches and tarnishing.
What wrist sizes does this band fit?
The Milanese Loop fits wrists measuring 130mm to 180mm in circumference, covering most small to medium wrist sizes.
Will the magnetic closure interfere with the Apple Watch or pull on clothing?
The magnet is designed to fold flat against the band and does not interfere with the watch's sensors. However, the mesh weave can occasionally snag on very fine-knit fabrics.
