Review: Well designed protection for your precious Apple Watch - I got this case even before I got my watch! Good job, Spigen, really good. I received my Apple Watch Sport 42mm gun metal yesterday, 42 days after placing my order at 12:13AM on April 10th which was the first day of sale...Apple, you can do better. Now about this case, which I easily put on the watch right after opening the box. No instructions but it isn't hard at all. I slipped off one of the watch bands by pressing the lock on the back of the watch, holding it, and sliding off the band. Then I fed the remaining attached band through the case and positioned the watch bottom in the case. Then I eased in the top and sides of the watch to the case and re-attached the watch band I had removed. The case material is flexible, like rubber, so this was not difficult at all. Now how does it fit and work? A well-designed accessory. I can access the crown, side button easily, there are holes for the speaker and mic on the other side, and the cut-out for the magnetic charger on the back is perfectly placed. By the way, the included screen protector (Spigen gives you two -- thanks Spigen, but I only needed the one) goes on easily. Just keep dust away when you install the protector and carefully peal off the films protecting the screen protector. I put my screen protector on after the watch was in the case, but you can do it before. The screen protector is cut perfectly to cover the watch face and easily clear the wrap-around of the case. Tactile is not compromised with this screen protector. Wal-la! Done deal and my precious Apple Watch is protected. I'm a bit anal about protecting my beautiful Apple products so I'd don't mind the extra girth that the case adds to the watch. I have big wrists so the extra girth is OK. I do believe that now I can further enjoy my watch without the worry of marring its face and that I can accidentally drop it and it will be OK. I haven't tested this however. I've never dropped my watch or iPhone, but do protect them for the additional peace-of-mind. A well-designed product worthy of five stars! Enjoy.
Review: Rugged protector is rugged and protects - My wife bought me an Apple Watch, so I bought this case to protect it. I just put it on last night (11/18/2018) so I can’t attest to the durability of it just yet, however if it’s anything like other Spigen products, which is the reason I bought it, I have full confidence in it. So to install, you first remove the bands from the Apple Watch. Then you have to squeeze the unit into the case. The case does have some flexibility to it, but it is tough. I suggest putting the side with the buttons into the case first, and then squeezing the rest in. Also to note, I put a screen protector on first, and when putting the case on, the screen protector got pulled up in some places. However, once the case was on, I was able to smooth out the screen protector and it fits well. The case does not interfere with the screen protector once everything is in place. So I wanted a case that would stand up to normal to moderate abuse, aka, I wanted to feel confident that I wasn’t going to destroy this thing if my arm brushed the car door or the wall or something. Obviously if I’m doing hard labor, like using a jackhammer and chipping concrete, I’d probably take it off anyways. But for, at least, the everyday stuff, this case should be perfect. It’s a little (and I mean just a little) bulky. It definitely doesn’t follow the slim form factor of the watch itself, but I feel it’s a good mix between style and rugged protection. Be prepared for this to possibly catch your sleeve when putting on a sweater. For me, I absolutely love it. I don’t mind the bulkiness too much, and it still looks like an Apple Watch, if that means anything to anybody. All in all, a tough protector for an expensive device, yet still stylish enough to give you the impression your wrist has a body guard on it 24/7. And of course, all at a great price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this fit the 42mm series 2?**
A: As far as dimensions go, the Apple Watch Series 2 will retain the same case sizes we know from the original - 38 mm (1.5 in) and 42 mm (1.7 in) - while bumping up the overall thickness of the device with 0.9 mm (from 10.5 mm, to 11.4 mm).

**Q: Will this keep out sand on the beach?**
A: I don't think so.  It doesn't seal the buttons.  It's basically good protection against scratches.

**Q: Has this been revised to fit series 2 including the holes?**
A: I've used it on my 42mm Series 2 for about a month. Zero issues with microphone or speakers.

**Q: So do you have to take off milanese band to install? If so I dont see how to disconnect band? Thanks**
A: The band comes off by pressing the little elongated buttons on the watch itself next to each side of the band. All the bands on the apple watch are interchangeable. That being said, I don't believe you have to take the band off to install. I didn't at least for mine, but I have the elastopolymer one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly suprised
*by K***. on June 4, 2015*

I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. This case makes my Apple Watch look like a kind of giant digital watch, but that's okay. I don't necessarily want everyone knowing I'm wearing an Apple Watch. That being said, it looks like a nice giant digital watch. The metal button over the friends/contacts button makes it look like it's the actual body of the watch. The curved Apple screen receeds a tiny bit before coming into contact with the bezel of the case which then rises back out. I was concerned this would look like crap, but it doesn't. With the black Apple Watch band, the whole thing looks really good. It doesn't feel any different, the heart rate monitor seems to be working exactly the same, and Siri works the same, too. I did not use the screen protectors. I was not worried about the screen directly, but about glancing blows if I bumped into something while walking. The raised ridge of the case seems to minimize those blows on the screen, too. The only problem I have found is a minor one: The scroll wheel is slightly impeded. It's still very useable, but you can't roll your finger all the way around it like before. It's a very minor impediment, but I notice it a little when I use the wheel. I was worried it might interfere with the charger, but it doesn't seem to. It is a tiny bit more difficult to use the buttons to release the bands, but they did make considerable effort to make that possible. It does work, it's just a tiny bit more difficult. My biggest problem with this is that I do like it so much and my black one doesn't look good with the metal Apple Watch band I bought recently on Amazon or my white Apple Watch band. I'm using my black band today, and now I may have to look into getting a black metal link band. You can see traces of the actual Apple Watch body through the gaps for the band and the scroll wheel, but that doesn't bother me much. Lastly, I keep reading that it is scratching the stainless steel watches. Stainless steel is softer than the aluminum. My Apple Watch Sport doesn't seem to be scratched at all.
