Q: Have I bought a genuine Milanese loop band?

Thank you for reply. Unfortunately my local store is nearly an hour away, and it is a town I rarely visit. I did try ringing it, but all the lines are going through to the main Apple support centre at the moment. They were unable to help, nor was the person on Apple chat.

Thank you for your reply Deggie. I have messaged a couple of people and have had some replies, some seem to have writing on theirs and others don't. Very odd.
