3. amBand case – Waterproof
Apple claims the Apple Watch Ultra is water resistant up to 100 meters. However, most of us won’t be diving to those lengths daily. And if you’d like to add some additional waterproofing to your Apple Watch Ultra while also protecting it further, the amBand Waterproof case is a perfect choice. It protects your watch from scratches, bumps, and accidental drops. Also, the tempered glass that comes included is responsive, just as the case buttons are clicky, and the cutouts are precise too. Finally, the seal ring between the polycarbonate case and the tempered glass helps the amBand case keep water from the screen. It also prevents any fogging and even avoids the water bubbles caused by water trapping between the case and the screen. You also get 2 packs of screen protectors and cases.

The Qoosea shockproof bumper case is a 360-degree protective case that covers all four corners and the sides of your Apple Watch Ultra.

Cutouts for cases are not always accurate, but that is not the case with Qoosea shockproof bumper case. Moreover, it is easy to apply as you don’t need to take the Apple Watch off your hands and can just snap the case in. It does not interfere when changing the Watch Band, either. And you get two cases for the price of one.
