Hi folks,

Understandably sticking a case on an Apple Watch isn’t to everyone’s taste ;)

But I’m looking for a case to protect my watch at work, just in case of any accidental knocks

Has anyone sourced and is using a good clear soft case?

I have looked on Amazon UK, although they have varied good/bad reviews, so not sure which to pick.

Haven't seen a soft clear case; but both Spigen, Ringke and Caseology do a soft black case; they also do thin hard cases that come with a clear case too

Ringke Matte Black & Clear slim cases: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ringke-Sli...e+watch+ultra+ringke+case,aps,119&sr=8-3&th=1

Spigen Thin Fit case: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spigen-Com...=apple+watch+ultra+ringke+case,aps,119&sr=8-5

Caseology bumper case: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Caseology-...ple+watch+ultra+caseology+case,aps,118&sr=8-3

As examples

I use the Spigen thin fit on my AWU2 titanium black, alongside the Spigen screen protector and they both do a superb job. This is my AWU2 with the Nomad strap and the case fitted

Strange, I snapped mine on and it was fine.

Great case, hardly notice it’s there, also looks good as the watch matches the colour at sides 👍

Its helped me out already, was lifting my arm, and the watch hit against the under side of the table

I think it was damaged before I received it and hadn't noticed... I've had a few bits before from Amazon that when I've looked more, you can see that it'd been returned once already... So probably put in the wrong 'bin' for distribution etc

But I'm also not a fan of how the side where the buttons are, is exposed - I prefer the Spigen's full coverage in that sense, more so as I use chalk a lot and don't want to mark the titanium black
