Spigen Rugged Armor Pro Designed for Apple Watch Band with Case for 42mm Series 3/2/1/Original (2015) - Black

This is my third Spigen Rugged Armor band. As a very active Professional Firefighter/EMT and avid outdoorsman, Im very hard on my gear. This band can take an absolute beating and keep functioning perfectly. The first band was broken while cutting a car up, as it was snagged on very sharp metal. The second was chewed up by my new puppy lol. This time, I got the green band and it is very attractive. Looks military. For the money, you wont get a better band. I have about an *.5 inch wrist, and the band fits nicely with three to four extra slots.

The product came within days easy shipping no problems. The product comes with everything you need and has three sets in case you dont do it right the first time. It comes with a spray so that you dont get anything dirty and it helps to be able to move the screen around so it doesnt stick right away. It also comes with a link to an installation video that will guide you it takes about 3 minutes to complete. Great Product!!!

Would have been 5 stars except all the branding on the band. Do not need to see Hybrid polymer, shock resistant, rugged armor (that one ok that what’s it’s called) and definitely don’t need to see untra comfortable. Save all that for the packaging. Attach a photo of one of the markings there are 2 on the top and one on the other side of the band.

The band helps keep a low profile and doesn’t add too much bulk like other protective bands. Time will tell how durable the band will be but so far I have been very happy with it. My only negative feedback is the strap seems to easily become unsecured from the little piece of plastic that you insert it into (sorry I don’t know the proper terms). I am finding myself having to reinsert the band a few times a day. But all in all it’s a great value for a protective watch band for the Apple Watch.

This in an excellent band. The watch pops in easily and securely, and it looks great. I have had compliments from other Apple Watch wearers on the looks of this band. I am a clumsy oaf, and constantly bang my watch into things, like my desk, the door jamb, walls... so having a built in case is a huge plus for me.I wear my Apple Watch without fear of scratching it up or dinging it. Its lightweight, has a nice feel to it, and is very rugged. I looked at a couple of other similar bands on Amazon, but I have owned several Spigen cases for phones over the years, and they have always been great quality for a reasonable price. This band is the same.

I work in a bar setting and already saw the potential to damage the screen; bumping my apple watch against a stainless steel counter or elsewhere. I’m used to wearing g shocks and although the shock protector on the Casio is deeper, this has done the job quite admirably. I wouldn’t subject the watch to the same abuse but I feel the band has helped preserve the unit. My only issue is the breathability of the band so if I wash my hands, which is often, I have to get under the band to dry. A little uncomfortable but not a deal breaker. Haven’t seen how sweat affects the band but I would assume if you wash it after exercise, it would be better. Update: Still holding up well. Don’t see damage from sweat or sanitizer. Had an issue with it causing a rash probably due to moisture and bacteria. This will happen with most bands regardless, just wash it well after sweating and make sure to wear it loose enough to allow some ventilation.

My husband loved this watchband as he had an active job and this provided some shock protection to the edges of his Apple Watch. It also is a good blend between the sleek Apple design and a rugged GShock that he had prior. Only downside is it does tend to cause him to sweat and hold in moisture in the band.

I wear many different watches. Mostly just G-Shocks or diver style watches. I must say this is one of the most uncomfortable watch band Ive ever worn! I knew the watch band felt uncomfortable to wear right off the bat, but I decided to kept it on for about another 6 hours or so and besides the comfort being terrible the marks it left on my wrist near the bone on top was really something Ive never witnessed before. Im not sure if its because the band is very stiff and the frame that wraps around the head of the watch is super stiff and also has very sharp edges that surround the sides of the watch head and a very sharp line around the crown guards. To me its the crown area that digs into my wrist. If I look down my arm it doesnt really fit flush on my wrist and I can see areas wheres theres zero contact from the band to my skin on the 12 Oclock side. The band also rides up on my wrist to the pinky side of my hand. I even turned the band around so the crown was on the opposite side, although felt better the band is just not comfortable. Im going to try and boil the band in hot water to try and see if I can get a better fit but Im not going to hold out much hope. Im super surprised by the amount of positive reviews on comfort. I just dont see the comfort at all. Maybe its just my average sized wrist? Believe me Im super bummed as I wanted this to work badly!

Better than expected. Working in construction I have this band maybe a day if even two but months later it is still holding on and just as tight and durable as when I first put it on. Great product

Looks awesome, good fit, doesn’t break after a week (some brands have the locks fall off after few uses because of the nature of the watch that you have to remove often), easy to wear and remove, and doesn’t interfere with the charger.
