Milanese loop discussion (merged)

Tried it on today, with both the space grey, and the silver aluminum. I wanted to like it with the space grey, but it just doesn't work imo. Plus 2 Apple reps told me they didn't like it, and much preferred it with the silver Aluminum.
I think it matches my skin well. I am going to get a green sport band this week (I think) and now waiting for SS in June. After my SS arrives, it is time to get Milanese loop, white sport band and prolly a link bracelet. I hope the bands will be compatible with Apple Watch 2.
DH ordered that band for me (with the SS watch) and I almost cancelled the order. I went to the store, tried it on and really liked it. Glad I didn't cancel the order.
Worried about theft?
I ordered the 42MM SS with the Milanese Loop, and now I am starting to wonder about how easy it will be to snag off my wrist. I am a bit worried that it will be a target for thieves as it may come off too easily. I didn't' have a chance to try it in a store - anyone have feedback on how strong the magnets felt who may have had a tyron appointment? It arrives tomorrow (so I will know soon enough), but for some reason this is freaking me out.
Thanks!

Loop is a closed one, meaning, the magnetic part is bigger so it won't come off thru the small opening. You wear it like the link one.
the magnet end doesn't come through the looped attachment point. it would have to be picked off over your hand.
You'll soon know how difficult it is to pry that magnet off
At my try-on, it took an awkward amount of force to open the thing. If someone tried to take it off you, you'd notice the nails digging into your wrist loooooong before someone made off with it. Hope this helps!

Thanks, All! Appreciate it!
Doubtful they are still working on order for people that preordered then 5 minutes in
As much as I love my ML im now ready for different band, luckily my sports band is about to ship and I have an adaptor on the way.
It's a great band but kind of looks boring after awhile.

I'm so glad I got the Milanese loop, mainly because it's insanely comfortable to wear. The fact that it has no clasp makes it very comfortable when you rest your hand on a desk (which I do a lot because I wear it on my right hand). I guess the clasp would have bothered on the modern buckle or the classic one. I know as a fact that I used to get my off Armani watch on longer computer sessions because of that.
Regarding sexuality/gender identity: I never thought it was feminine because it's a metallic band, but I guess women can pull it off as easily as men.

Milanese loop is the best band for the apple watch it's interesting and does not get boring after a while. Apple did a good job on designing this band.

Milanese loop band is amazing and the technology used on designing this band is great. This Milanese loop band is very manly and can be worn on any occasion.

My wife had a reaction (allergic type rash) to the sport band, so I sold her sport watch and ordered the 38mm SS Milanese on May 12. It shipped May 15!
I've ordered just the band for me as a change from my BSB and it still says June. #
I can't wait to get it for myself.
For the record, I'm a male and my sexual preference: I'm a raging lesbian.

Milanese loop band magnet is very strong and I doubt it'll come off your wrist. Aside from that the Milanese loop band id say is the most interesting and best technology used by Apple. Hands down milanese loop band is the best for the apple watch its manly and for straight men 100% and it can be used for any occasion.
