Great Protection and Comfort

I purchased the Catalyst Apple Watch Case to help protect my 38mm Apple Watch as I intended it for more rugged use. Camping, Kayaking, Fishing, Swimming, and Racket Sports. There are many cases and bumpers available, but I like one with an integrated strap, that looks more like a traditional Watch.
This does the job nicely. It does add quite a bit of bulk, so the 38 is slightly larger than a 42mm Watch without its case. With a 42mm and the Catalyst case, you’d need a larger wrist.
The case provides rugged protection, as well as a water resistance to 33’. Don’t need it, but it provides an extra layer of protection, and the silicone inner lining helps absorb hits.
A little pricey, but I felt that I got more bang for my buck over other case and strap combinations.

I bought this case for my step-dad after he bought an Apple Watch. It causes the watch to look a little bulky, but that's a given when you put a case on anything. It offers great protection! The only difference is he has trouble using the buttons on the side of the watch sometimes if it's not lined up correctly. I would still totally recommend for others.

This case is a great waterproof case. Easy to install. Stands up to heavy use. Does not include a screen protector, but the case makes the screen recessed to avoid dings. If you want to use a screen protector, make sure to use a full screen, not just the small square in the middle.

I was looking for maximum protection for my new Apple Watch since I work in a hospital. When I found this one it was perfect. My watch gets banged up on the daily and so far so good. I also like that it’s waterproof as well. Would be 5 stars but I hate that you can’t change out the band like with every other case. You have to use the one attached which is not my favorite.

Absolutely cringed at the idea of covering up my Apple Watch. Then I smashed it at work one day. Now I keep it covered and protected. I bang it around every day. Not even a scratch. This product has saved me $$$

Very comfortable and excellent protection for the Apple Watch. There is no screen protection but I have found that unnecessary for the Apple Watch.
I only wish the band was longer as I have a large diameter wrist.
I will definitely be looking at Catalyst cases when I get a new iPhone and/or iPad.

I bought this for my daughter because she cracked her last watch while in waterpolo practice. This has done a great job of keeping the water directly away from the watch and from her breaking again. The only con is that it is quite bulky.

This waterproof apple watch band does its job of protecting the apple watch. It is rugged so you don't have to worry about banging your watch on anything. You can also swim or shower with confidence knowing your Apple watch is protected. The only down side to the product is you have to keep up with a very tiny screw that keeps it secure.

It is a great water proof case for Apple Watch, but still needs continuous test, especially pushing home button under water.

Love this Apple Watch! It is a great companion to the Iphone and has so many uses. The texting is a little difficult at times, but it is wonderful for replacing fitbit and tracking all of my exercise.

This watchband provide otter box-type protection to your Apple watch. It is a little bulky, but I personally like a bigger watch. I am rough on it, and I have relied on this to protect it from me! I have only had to replace it once when my previous band broke. Even though it broke due to an incident, the watch was not harmed at all.

Works well. Not too much bulk. I went with the smaller Apple Watch because I have small wrists, and I knew I was going to put a cover on it. Had some hesitation after reading reviews about the screw pulling out. I have had zero issues with it. I think people are screwing it too tight and stripping the threads. Works great so far.

I would say the Caralyst band was a great purchase overall. It provides the protection needed due to the type of work environment and possible water exposure. I only knocked it off a star because it’s bulky and not too comfortable.
