While there are now hundreds of cases to help waterproof smartphones and tablets, the Catalyst Apple Watch case offers protection specifically for smartwatches. With the addition of this protective smartwatch case, the wearable device becomes better equipped to go on outdoor adventures.
Once the silicon case has been applied to a smartwatch, the watertight seal protects the device from any damage. When applied, the screen of the watch is still visible and the buttons can be used with plastic extensions that jut out from the watch cover. That being said, the touchscreen is not usable, however, it leaves it fully functional for light use in water up to a certain depth.
In addition to protecting devices against water damage, the Catalyst Apple Watch case also prevents damage from dust and shocks, cushioning the device from drops of up to three feet.
