I like to work outside but don't like to take off my apple watch because it keeps me informed about texts and calls so I'm always worried about scratching the face. This protector snaps right over the watch and fits snuggly. I can use my watch normally with it on, and it protects it from the briars and brush I get into. When I get done, I just snap it off and put it in the drawer with my other watch bands. Easy, Peasy!
