I just purchased my first Apple Watch. I am curious if anyone has come across a good full protection case for both the screen and sides of the watch? I'm looking for one that won't change the look/shine of the watch and isn't very noticeable on. I'd love to hear some suggestions. Thanks :)
 
I bought the Armorsuit screen and body protector (the clear ones - they also make some sort of carbon fiber skin), straight from their website. Same stuff made for smartphones. My understanding is that it's one of the better fitting and better made options - maybe the best for the AW. It's a pain to get it to stick properly and can take a couple of days to get everything to adhere correctly. But the fit is excellent, and once it's on you wouldn't really know it's there unless you looked closely. On my second SS Apple Watch (returned the first after a couple weeks) and the one I put on the first watch stayed on without any issues over that couple of weeks, even after exercising and washing the watch. Not sure how long I will keep it on, but I think it's one of the best options. The only thing missing is a piece that covers the ceramic back. But technically it's ceramic/zirconia and shouldn't really be scratchable under normal circumstances. Might try and find a back protector but probably not. Eventually I'll likely wear the thing naked. I posted a pic under the screen protector thread above.
