What’s everyone using for a screen protector on their series 3 watches?

I see plenty on Amazon but what’s the best brands?

Other than it being hard to change bumpers for color.. I love the Armour Suit one.

I use Skinomi from Amazon. The first one I didn’t put it on very well and corners started come up after a month. The second one I did much better and I don’t even notice it’s there. A trick I learned is to keep my hand over the screen for a few minutes after putting it on to make edges contour the screen and stick well.

Is the Skinomi still adhering well? Looking to get one for my Series 3 when it get's back from some Apple TLC...

Sorry for this late reply, but I just changed to a new one as the corners started to lift up. I’m happy it lasted more than two month. Got a pack of 6 so it should last more than a year...

I had an Armorsuit for quite a while and it gave me excellent service. At the end of the day, I dislike film protectors, though.

I bought the Zagg glass screen protector when it came out a month or so ago for the S3 AW.

The glass surface is infinitely nicer to touch and look through, and much more responsive. However, I don't like the "bezel" that the Zagg creates over what was black glass. Overall, though, it's an ok tradeoff.

Here's what I like to do. I use the 38mm Skinomi on my 42mm watch so it doesn't curve around the corners. It covers about as much area as a glass 42mm would. This way when I use my tpu case it doesn't force the corners to peel up. Works for me.
