I do construction for a living and this case proves to stand up the vigorous task of protecting my Apple Watch. The only thing I wish it had was a screen protector.

I got my case for the watch by the end of May but apparently the case that holds the watch face broke on me. I’ve never taken it apart or dropped it. I have scraped it but never had impact on it but today I was going to run but the top of the case came off and the face fell on the concrete. I really got lucky that it came with a rubber protector. I wouldn’t recommend it tbh especially since obviously you have to take the watch off to charge it yet the holes holes where you clip it on loosen up real quick since it’s rubber. The only good thing I can say is I loved how it looked haha

Have on had this product for 3 months, and found out the hard way that the screw that holds the cover together is not built to last long. I was walking around and the front cover just popped off and my watch hit the ground. Who is worried about waterproof when you need to worry that your watch will get lost without you event knowing it. And on top of all of it you pay 50 bucks for it. STAY AWAY!!!!

Really works great to protect watch.
Only complaints is a little bulky, and tricky at first to learn how to put on by yourself. The band goes on your wrist and attaches in a weird manner. If was cloth band wouldn’t be so sweaty.

Great at protection. A bit pricey, though. Easy to install and use.

Since the apple watch is a little less budget-friendly than other watches, this case gives the watch that extra protection from little incidents we run into from time to time. I know I want to preserve the sleek look of the watch and not scratch it. With this casing, my watch is protected from everyday wear and tear. Easy assembly.

Adds a lot of bulk to an Apple Watch which isn’t too appealing for light use environments. However, if you work outdoors or in rough environments there is no doubt this would protect your investment.

This was a birthday present for my son who spends a lot of time fishing and kayaking. I feel better knowing his investment is protected. This cover is easy to put on and it does not obscure the face of the watch. The sale price as well as the fast free delivery made this gift a great choice!

I like the design but the top popped off and the silicon cover caused it to not charge sometimes! Back to the drawing board it needs a new design to fix these issues!

I need a waterproof case that was good and stylish. This band gives me That. I had a technical problem that Catalyst jumped on top of and I had a new band being sent within 24 hours of the issue.

I wanted something to shield the water to keep from ruining my purchase. The product worked but too bulky. The knob covers stuck out too far and dig into my hand too much.

I bought it expecting it would be great quality but its trash! I like the design, but the screw that was supposed to hold the front edge of watch was falling out. Doesn't fit with screen protector on your watch, it cracked my screen protector. Not worth it for the price.
