SpigenRugged Armor Pro Designed for Apple Watch Case with Band Series 9/8/SE2/7/6/SE/5/4 45mm/44mm Protective TPU Cover with Strap

I bought a used Apple Watch Series 4 and KNEW that I would be needing protection for it. I am used to wearing G-Shock watches, I am active, and I bang around the watch all day at work. (Not intentionally!) So, I searched out the closest thing to a G-Shock style case as I could.Installation is simple - pop it in, crown side first. Fit is snug, but it does shift around enough that if you buy a stick on screen protector, you will want to go down several sizes. Even the 42mm protector was too big, as this case would shift very slightly throughout the day and peel the edges up. I put a 40mm protector on it now, and so far it has been good.With the raised border, the screen is well protected from bangs and scratches against doorways and edges. Of course a point can still hit the watch face, but that's unavoidable with anything unless it covers the screen. The band is plenty big (I am 6'1" 225 and I am on hole 5 of 11). It is comfortable, and lighter than the GShock. I am used to the weight, so I miss it a bit, but this seems pretty durable. The rubber here feels a bit more brittle than the GShock Rubber, but it's not a bad thing.In my opinion, it's handsome, and for me it makes the watch wearable. I am not gentle with watches... and I feel confident that this will do the job of protecting my investment. Also, it makes the watch look not so much like an Apple Watch, if you know what I mean (which for me is a plus). Without this case, I wouldn't be wearing an Apple Watch. It would be sitting on my bed stand because I would be afraid of breaking it!

Rugged is rightHad this for 4 years and wear it everyday and even in the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America) on two vacations.See picture. This is four years of wear.I’d say I got my money’s worth and then some.I consider this in my top ten purchases of all time good. That includes my best drum kit and Harley DavidsonIf you buy this, rest assured you won’t regret it

Really solidly built. Looks great and provides great protection.

Received this band a little over a week ago and have gone back and forth on how I feel about it.When it arrived I was excited to try it out right away based off all of the positive reviews, but admittedly, I was slightly disappointed. The band you get seems like a close knock-off based on the pictures - it looks really similar but just seems...off, in a way.Disregarding the disappointing "excitement" of unboxing it, I popped my Apple watch in the case. It seems like it's made of durable rubber, but was a little skeptical with how easily it just went into the casing, but so far so good with it! I still find myself "babying" it a little because while it seems secure, the rubber gives off the impression that it'll wear and stretch out causing the watch to come loose and fall out (or I could just be extra paranoid, who knows?).Onto the rest of the band, it is single piece construction which is both good and bad. Good in that it provides security to it all, no worrying about if one of the watch bands will come "unclicked" causing the watch to fall off, but bad in that if any part of the band does break or become defective the whole band is done for. Additionally, the buckle itself feels kind of like barely above average plastic.I promise this isn't a full-on negative review though! My experience with it in the very short-term has been good. It's done its main job in being a band for my watch and given it a little more girth and the appearance of it being protected. It hasn't faced any run-ins of being hit against a wall or dropped, so I can't speak to the overall protective measures, but it's nice to know I can really "feel" it when I wear it.I love Spigen and use their phone case for my iPhone and it feels well-made and well-constructed, so I guess overall the band itself left me a little wary and slightly disappointed and I don't feel completely trusting that it will truly protect my watch. I am still not sold or sure of the long-term durability or composition of the watch band that comes with continued use and age.All-in-all if you're just looking for a change to the click-in watch bands that you get with an Apple watch, this is one to take a good look at in considering.

This watch case is exactly as advertised. It’s sturdy solidly built. It was also easy to insert my Apple Watch into it. Great value.

This watchband is a combination of protection and sleek style. My Series 9 45mm fits snuggly and looks great. With this design, the watch even looks bigger as my other band had higher ridges and obscured the view ever so slightly. I bought a black one and a white one and I’m very happy with my choice.

Great band fir my 44mm watch, the looks are great in between the rugged camp and business casual. Perfect for office daily use.

If you’re left handed, and wear your watch on your right wrist, the “rugged armor” and “shock resistant” words on the edges will be upside down. It’s not a big deal, but to some people it may be. Having worn this watch and case/band for 7 months straight, I can say I’m a little disappointed. The band doesn’t fully open up, so when you charge it, you have to lay it on its side. Also, the part that holds the watch in place is starting to break/degeade/crumble. To be fair, I am pretty rough; working on cars, landscaping, camping, and being outdoorsy, but I feel like a case called “tough armor” should hold up a little better
