Orzly Invisicase - Throw your screen protectors away

Does this mean that the case is actually just a case with a separate screen protector that comes with it, or is this actually an all-in-one case which covers the sides and screen in one piece?
It does not come with a screen protector, it's a very thin case that covers the screen and sides.
I like the idea but I really wonder how easily this will pop off. I feel like any case that you can easily pop off with your fingers will end up popping off by itself throughout the day.
I also wonder how well the material is from this company as far as scratch resistance and durability since I dont recognize them as one of the more well known companies.

Having put it on my watch three days ago, it has not popped off once. I have worn it playing football twice also and it didn't come off then either.
When you put it on, you have to kind of gently bend it in the middle to get it to latch over the screen. So the fit is very snug. Much tighter than say, the Spigen Thin Case.
As for the scratch resistancy, no problems as yet.
Being so tight, and bending to put it on, will it scratch the side of the watch putting it on. I have the Stainless steel Apple Watch. I purchased it off of Amazon, but won't receive it for 3 to 4 weeks.. I bought for protection not to scratch up the Stainless.
I think that being hard plastic, it would scratch an SS body. You might want to consider a soft tpu that covers the body and leaves the screen open.
Having experienced using the Orzly, I would be amazed if it scratched the SS.
Screen coverage is one of the big attractions for me with this case. It will also prevent scratches on the body of the SS.
My only worry about the case is not that it is Plastic, but how tight it is to get on the watch. When putting it on is when it would get scratched if it is too tight snapping it on. Scratches on the stainless can be polished out though, but I wouldn't want to have to do that every time I take off the case. I was getting the case for outdoor activities or shooting basketballs with my daughter. I won't have it on for everyday use, just the activity stuff. Once the case is on and you take it off, is it the same problem bending to get it on or is it a little easier? I will be interested to here others who get this case of what their impressions are.
If it is a tight fit then I think it would scratch SS when you take it on and off. Aluminium I think would be fine.
Why don't you message Orzly and see what they say. If they claim that it won't scratch stainless steel then go for it

This is really nice! Thanks for posting! Going to order mines from Ebay. I like that it's clear. Still maintains the look of the watch.
Thank you for this post!
I ordered the case 2 minutes ago on Amazon after reading some posts on this forum.
I'm really looking forward to test it out on my watch (which is still on processing

)You kind of stretch it in rather than bend, perhaps I didn't word it very well before.
I could do a quick video showing the installation if you like.
Ok, as a follow up I have done a quick video of the Spigen Thin Case v the Orzly Invisicase.
I am trying to show how both are installed on the watch, how it looks and how the a Spigen is prone to popping off the watch.

Great video ! Love the way the Spigen looks more than the Orzly, but love the Orzly concept and how it covers the screen too, and you can use the screen while it's on. Not as good looking as the Spigen (imo), but a great idea. Now just need someone to build a Spigen thin type case with integrated screen protection like the Orzly.
How come you didn't do the same finger flick removal test with the Ozrly ?
I was wondering if you could do a video repeatedly snapping the case on and off and show the aluminum body to see if it took any scratches or not from it.
I also want to ask if you can take things like coins, keys, and maybe even screws or nails to the protector to test scratch resistance and then show the protector in bright light at angles to see if it took any damage. Dont know if you're willing to do all that though.

I didn't think of doing the flick test on the Orzly. I don't really make videos to be honest.
I have tried it since and the Orzly will flick off from the left side only, but not as easily as the Spigen. The Spigen also flicks off from any side as it's much thicker than the Orzly. I still like the Spigen though. I have worn it while playing football and it stayed on. I can definitely see the potential for it popping off though.
As for scratching the body of the watch, I can't see this happening at all. If the Orly did this anything is capable of scratching it. Not happened on my SG.
As for other tests, would love to but if it did scratch it I would have to buy another one. Mind you it did only cost me £4.99 including postage. Maybe I will do it if nobody else does first.
Just ordered my orzly inviscase. Has anyone tested it with a screen protector on the watch? Will it still fit?
