Littmann stethoscope color

So I made a choice and decided on a Littmann Classic II SE for nursing school :). Considering my indecisive nature, this is a major accomplishment on it's own, but I have now stumbled upon an even bigger dilemma! WHAT COLOR?! :wacky: The color that caught my eye is a very light blue (ocean blue) but I am hearing over and over on reviews that the lighter colors scuff and absorb colors from scrubs and can't be cleaned well.

What is the lightest color that doesn't scuff too badly? I like the royal blue but may end up with the dark purple, navy, or all black because I want it to look nice as long as humanly possible.

Nevermind, decided on all black with laser engraving ;)

I got all black with rainbow finish and engraving on my cardio III. Subtle, yet still neat!

I have a seafoam green Littmann Lightweight SE. I wanted a color that relatively few other people at my places of employment have. Black stethoscopes are popular and tend to grow legs that quickly learn to walk...

I have the raspberry colour which is really cute and hasn't scuffed or faded.

I got the forest green which I love the color, but I regret not going with a lighter color.

The pinks and blues are pretty.
