the black sport band is peeling inside so I called it in. Come to find out the bands are under 1 year warranty and they could replace it. It wasn't really a walk in the park because they wanted me to go to an Apple Store to get it replaced. At first they said if they ship it they would charge me $50. I said what kind of warranty charges you? With enough patience and bit of a pushback they agreed to send me a replacement via shipping to my door for free!!! Well for how much this watch is it ain't supposed to be falling apart within 2 months of use. So yea get your replacement sport bands exchanged if they are peeling.
 
Mine is peeling slightly but am waiting before the warranty expires to replace it just in case it happens again.
