Well I tried the Monoy cover for two days but gave up on it. It's like it doesn't fit real close to the watch face because it almost always had a spot somewhere close to the center that looks like it's wet inside. I took it off several times and made sure it was clean and dry underneath but when I put it back on a spot would show back up. It did work well otherwise, but I really didn't like seeing that spot.
I just got mine the other day and the same thing happens to me. That being said I think Im gonna keep it. The spot is a small price to pay for the safety of a good fitting cover

I'm wondering if this is just an isolated issue on the Monoy or is true for all of them and if this same issue is present on the Orzly. I would buy an Orzly but I can't find it on eBay. Anyone have a link?

just a FYI I haven't noticed the "spot" today
should be that it was cleaner condensation that eventually evaporated

Has anyone had any trouble receiving their orzly case from eBay UK? I purchased a case on the 1st June and have yet to receive it or have any message acknowledgment from the seller. My friend is also having the same issue.

Thinking of getting the Monoy Hard grey for my SG AW. Does the greyish color take away from the clarity of the screen? Also, people that have used both the Armor suit sreen protector and Orzly/Monoy, which one do you like better?

Just received my monoy today. There is definitely a gap between the case and screen, I can feel a little give when pressing down on it.

It's a seller called Flexfirm, to be fair he's finally responded to my two messages claiming to have posted and offered a replacement.

I still haven't received the case and the same has happened to my friend.

Flexfirm sent mine. No issues with the Inviscase but claimed to have sent the Orzly Duo Stand and I never got it. They responded to my message and have sent another today via Recorded Royal Mail.

A bit of a coincidence but maybe some issues with the post office he is using.

If the replacement arrives soon, then fair enough.

How do you like it otherwise? Does it interfere with the functions? Visibility?

Does not interfere with the clarity at all. I prefer the gray to the clear, I posted pics in this thread or another thread about Orzly/Monoy etc.

I like it definitely prefer it over the ArmorSuit I had on before. Doesn't interfere with functionality. Visibility is good, I got the clear version so I'm not sure how the grey one would look. Overall you don't really notice that it's there unless you look at the watch from the side. It is a finger print magnet but then again the watch itself is a finger print magnet

I like the Orzly case, but as you can see in the picture on the right corner of the watch screen, I always get those spots. And they aren't always on the same spot, it differs (yesterday, it was on the right upper corner and the day before in the centre of the screen).
I have to add that I use the Skinomi screen protector underneath the Orzly case, because I didn't plan to use the case all the time, so maybe that's the reason for the spots.

So I'm going to use the case for days where I expect casualties (like hiking, biking, ...) but for normal use, I'll just stay with the Skinomi.

Will the Skinomi stick to and get pulled off by the Orzly case when you take the case off? I thought about doing this but was concerned that I may waste a film when I take off the case.

No, not at all. Mine hasn't move yet since I put it on the watch screen. The case has done nothing to my screen protector in the last three days.
(Actually, I didn't even think about that something could happen to the film)

That's cool, I'll try it after work today! My main concern using the case alone is that I can feel a gap between the case and screen when I force touch the screen. Maybe adding a screen film in between case and screen will work better.

Overall I really like this type of case. Stealthy protection for both screen and watch case.

Hi There,

I noticed that Monoy has two different covers. Just the clear one is for the "non-sport" watch. I wanted to know if anyone doesnt have a sport and ordered one of their "sport" watch cases and it fit their reg Apple Watch?

EDIT - Just checked Amazon and the shipping date for the clear is July 7th EEK

Just got my monoy from Amazon yesterday. Not even a day later, I have 2 large scratches on the cover. So I guess it did its job, but I think I'd rather have a film cover like Zagg. I bet it would hold up better.

The monoy also popped off once when it barely grazed something. Not confident about this being a main source of screen protection.

Is the seller Flexfirm ?
