If you're worried I think there are a few companies that make protectors similar to screen protectors for the back of the watch. Should be fine after that.
Always lay your watch on the side?
Hi guys,
Have any of you found any stainless steel straps that fit on the S3 that has "curved ends" to fill the gap? I just tried a Seiko watch strap with curved ends and it does not fit/match well at all.
Thanks!

I have this strap from Aliexpress.
http://s.aliexpress.com/f6bANNbI
Cost $16.59 and took about 3 weeks to arrive
I was considering this one but it appears the fitment isn't very good. I guess no one else has made one that fits yet.
Thanks!

Correct. There is still a gap, but I think it's better than on curved straps.
I did buy another curved strap, rubber not SS. The fitment to the watch is better but there is a gap between the watch and my wrist.
Has anyone gotten a screen protector yet? As of today there are several choices. Just seeing if anyone has one and how much you like it.
amazon says Im getting mine today. tempered glass
I got the one below - Day 6, so far it seems good

I'm holding out for Spigen. I expect they will be available soon. Their auto-alignment installation kit makes it so much easier to put on. When they are available they will be on Amazon. Here is Spigen's product page for them (46mm):

I used this one on my GW3, and it also fits on my GW4.

Anyone in the UK found any decent 40mm protectors? As with most of them the one above only seems to be available in America..

I bought this one, but I don't believe it is a perfect fit.

The Spiglen are too small, CAVN ones are also too small (Galaxy Watch 4 Classic 46mm). They both leave 1-2 mm the whole way around the screen protector. (UK based)

Ref my post above, my watch is the 46mm Classic and the Kimilar screen protector leaves a gap also.
I got this from Amazon UK, happy with it, fits well, clear, not a fingerprint magnet, smooth to touch

I got this one on my GW4 LTE 44 mm and it works well. It DOES NOT have a suction cup or guide, but I put it on 99% dead center on the first try.

I believe there was a slight gap on my last Spigen one (on GW1). It was very slight and I did not have an issue with it. Doesn't there have to be a slight gap so it can be removed?
I'm looking for one from Amazon US that fits the 46mm Classic with minimal or non-existent border gap. The Amazon availability date for the majority protectors listed, pre-date the Watch 4 release date and some of the reviews mention a 1mm border gap.
I went with the Supershieldz screen protector. No guide and kind of a pain to get it on centered. It took 2 for me. It also has a small bubble literally at the edge of it that won't go away. NOT impressed...

Going to try something else I guess.
I am a klutz so I figured that I needed to something on my GW4C as soon as possible. Rather than waiting to all of the first hand reviews I just picked one that looked decent.
The one I picked was: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09BFD6MVN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It is solid rather than film, installation was easy, it passes my inspection. Touch is not degraded, and I feel much better that it is there than I did when it was not...
Another vote for the Suoman brand. Here is the link for the 42mm version

One note/negative is that these fit all the way to the edge, no gap for dirt to get trapped. I kind of mentioned it as a negative as at first I thought one of them was scratched near the edge. Ripped it off and put on a second one only to find out it was just that it wasn't adhering near the edge. Had to rub and press hard for it to finally adhere. Now it looks stock, like there isn't even a protector on it. It came with 4 in the pack so still have 2 more in the event I ever need it but doubt it as my Gear 2 still has the original protector I put on long ago.

The reason for this is that there's a compatible case for the watch that you buy separately. I got the GW4 40mm Spigen Liquid Air case and the tempered glass screen protector and the two work together really well (the case takes a few days to get used to though)

Thx. I will try the Suoman ones. Only $7 as well...
So did anyone find a screen protector (glass or film) that covers the 44mm watch 4 (non-classic) edge to edge?
Would appreciate a link! Thank you!
I'm using these ones, I bought them for my GWA2, but they work GREAT also for my GW4.

Hey all,
I picked up some glass screen protectors to hide an existing scratch and prevent future scratches. The only issue I have is that it's not a perfect fit. There's a slight gap around the edges which results in the display's light being slightly refracted around the perimeter. It's quite distracting when viewing content with white or other light-colored backgrounds.
Has anyone found a tempered glass protector that covers the entire display of the 46mm GW4 Classic, from edge to edge?
Thanks in advance!
I purchased this one and it seems to fit good. The protective case fit good too.

Unfortunately, the one you recommended is even smaller than the one I had installed. Doesn't come close to reaching the edges of the display. While I must admit that I'm no longer seeing the type of annoying light refraction that I was getting with the previous protector, viewing the watch from certain angles is pretty annoying because it's very easy to see where the tempered glass protector ends, leaving a weird gap between the display and bezel. Oh well. I appreciate the effort
Sorry about that. It really does not bother me and the glass is crystal clear. That is the main part I was looking for. Also like the protector for the watch body. Hope you do find one that is a closer fit to what you want.

The fit is perfect! The protectors (2 are included) come attached to guide trays that are perfectly molded to fit the shape of the GW4. This makes it impossible to screw up the placement and alignment of the protector. The fit is flawless, covering the entire display from edge to edge. No gap. Can't even tell it's installed.
Nice, when I need a new one then maybe I will order that one. Are you using the case protector from the other order?

No. I tried it and, while it does fit nicely, it makes rotating the bezel really difficult.
I got used to it. Also, you could get one of the bezel covers to make it higher.

Just received this one today. I've tried so many and this is definitely the best one out there. The others were definitely too small, but this fit is really good. Thanks for the heads up @Cyclops1055
I recently got got a watch 4 classic 46mm, and cant seem to find a screen protector for it without ordering online, which i want to avoid cuz shipping us more expensive then the protector. So are screen protectors for previous watches compatible with it (f.e. watch 3 45mm sp for watch4c 46mm cuz of the same screen size)?
TLDR:
Can i use a screen protector from previous gen watches if the screen size is the same?

I just installed the Spigen Glas EZ FIT (46 mm), and I'm fully satisfied with the fitting.
