Screw is Screwed – I bought this thinking it’d protect my Apple Watch ⌚️ during my working day as a handyman and landscaper. Answer? A resounding no. Watch band fell apart in under 2 weeks.

The case seems to protect watch quite well, however, it didn't last as long as I was hoping. I never submerged or dropped the case while I owed it, however, when I brushed it up against an object, the back casing disintegrated. Not sure… Read more
if it is a design flaw (there is only one attachment screw in the back plate, so I believe this may put unnecessary stress on the casing), but having paid over $100AUD, I'd say that it was not worth the money.
