    This edge protector is great and it has the give to pop off when smash on the edge of a corner wall... I had expected it to be broken after but it held up... So good for edges however I would not recommend for total protection. I have many protectors for my apple watch and have spent a small fortune to protect this apple product... This one is great for low impact production work spaces but not recommend for more aggressive work spaces... That is why I have three type of protectors... If I want to look great and swap from gold to silver on and easy day then it's a synch and Apple pay works great with the buttons... I say this.... because I do have a slip on case made by Griffin Technology - "Survivor Tactical" that is all in one that protects the screen and edges but the side buttons are hard to access and I have to pop the case off for apple pay but its great for harsh work spaces and offers screen protection were others don't protect the screen. Lastly I have a LUNATIK - EPIK Polycarbonate Case and Silicone Band this is great for out door work helps to protect edges and I really don't care if the band get dirty but again it does not offer a face shield protection but works well with apple pay...

    It's just plastic but protects from scratches during minor bumps. Also provides a nice different look. Had other fac plates that attach from the back which make you remove the band. This easily just snaps over the front of the watch and removal is just as simple. takes about 3 seconds.

    I've purchased two of these Apple Watch cases. And they are easy to remove and interchange. They give my watch a great look but the part that hooks under the watch causes minor scuffs. Not from placing it on or removing it but from wear in general. I'd still buy again thought.

    I bought this for my dad for his iWatch. He loves it! He loves the look of sophistication that it gives his watch and the added protection it provides. It really does make the watch look nice. I wanted to order one for my iWatch but they are sold out now. If they come back in, I'm buying one for myself!

    Metal protection for Apple Watch

    I currently work at a big orange retail store, so I wanted to have some protection for my Apple Watch Sport against accidental damage while I work. The X-Doria Defense Edge does a good job of keeping the apple watch safe, while not being bulky. The Defense Edge is constructed from metal and rubber/plastic. It's slim, and easy to install. After a month of use, there's no visible signs of wear, despite numerous brushes against store shelving and other items.. I haven't had the case pop off unexpectedly, a common problem for a lot of cases that just snap on to the watch. The downside is that it provides no protection for the screen. The edge of the Defense Edge doesn't extend above the glass, so an accidental scrape against something can scratch your glass. I use a screen protector to protect the glass because of this. Overall, it's a nice Apple Watch case, it just doesn't protect the screen which may be an issue for you.

    I purchased this case when I bought my apple watch. It is small and light but offers great protection from scratches or dents on my watch. I had the gold colered watch so this gold case blends in perfectly so you can't even see the case that well. Definitely recommend if you are considering a case for your apple watch.

    This case fits extremely well without scratching the actual watch itself (due to it's rubber inner lining). It also does a good job of increasing the watches overall size, and adds some solid protection!

    Was looking for a bumper to help protect the watch. Easy to put on and take off. Does what it was designed to. Protects the sides of the watch. Lightweight, looks good. Get lots of compliments on it.

    The casing protects my Apple Watch well. In fact, I've dropped a few times on hardwood floor and it has saved it from damage. It's easy to snap on and off, so that's a plus. It does disguise the watch a bit, but it does its job and doesn't look too bad either.

    Love Love this! i bought this for my fiance and I and i absolutely love it. the red looks awesome on guys it kinda looks like an ironman kind of look. I love this product for the sole reason that it prevents my bracelets from scratching the watch eventhough i have the stainless steel one.

    I like how it protects the sides of the watch. I like the look! It stays on well! I just wish it was raised just a little bit above the face to protect it more. But overall, I like it!

    This is the first protective case I've tried for my Apple Watch, although I've looked at many & read a ton of reviews. I like this one because it's padded inside (the part which hugs your Watch's case) and it seems to have quite a snug fit. In fact, there's no way this protector should ever fall off. Installation is a snap & takes about 5 seconds - just make sure you get the side button on the case lined up with the one on your Apple Watch. Once installed, the top edge of the case comes to just below your Apple Watch's face, so it's not able to provide any screen protection but does allow unhindered access to your touch screen. I've banged my X-Doria case pretty hard on things at work & it hasn't even scratched after about a month of use. Overall, I'm really pleased with this as a slim, rugged case.

    Looking at different types of options for protecting my new apple watch and after considering about 5 different options I went with this case from X-Doria. I really like how it looks and feels sturdy and feels like good protection for my apple watch. Would recommend it to others!

    Worthwhile. Gives the bit of spice I wanted. Not too large. Attractive. 1 thing need to remember each time is how to remove it -- which side comes off first. Tricky. Don't want to break it. Move talk very positive.
