********UPDATE 2**********
Please go here for Otterbox!!!!

********UPDATE**********
This Tough Case option is officially closed. Case-mate opted not to produce this. Read more here LINK
************************
Please submit your design wish list here (cost, color, etc.)
For me, I want it executed like the Galaxy S above. Black color is great and looks professional and handsome. ABS plastic has to cover the corners for protection. Power button cover to help prevent accidental shutoff. No covers on frequently accessed ports (headphone, microusb)
Here's is the response from Case-mate:

Yeah, I know... kind of generic. I've offered them a link to this thread. Please vote above if you are interested in order to try to give us more choices.
I've submitted messages to otterbox and case-mate so lets hope they can come up with something. Only thing im looking at right now is one of those amzer TPU cases but im not really thrilled about it :-/
I hope they are listening.
You can post on their facebook as well. They are very active on facebook:

They already make the red Pop! Case that you see on the AT&T site. It can't be that much more effort to make the Tough Case as well.

Although im not a fan of the read pop, i wouldnt mind seeing how it looks on the phone. After all, im using a Nexus One sleeve pouch thats hacked up because Windows phone 7 likes to turn itself off when locked and in a tight sleeve case!

Done. To be honest i would MUCH rather i have an Otterbox defender, but ill take what i can at this point.
The Otterbox defender is nice. It is noticeably bulkier but does provide maximum protection. I'm not really a fan of clear plastic membrane over the screen, but that's just me. There is no doubt that the Defender is a great case. But I really like the Case-mate Tough Case, slightly more than the Otterbox. I see the Tough Case as equivalent to the Otterbox Commuter series. The big difference is that the Commuter doesn't have the ABS plastic on the corners like the Tough Case. I personally think this is a design flaw. Like a said in post 1, 90% of the time you drop the phone, it is going to land on a corner first with the most impact. That initial impact is what is going to break your screen. The Tough Case , having ABS plastic over silicone on the corners, is a better design imho. But I would take either one at this point, to be honest.
I can't see me walking into a meeting with a Red Pop! Case. For the life of me, I can't see why they would only produce only the red one (as of today)? A gray and black one would have worked fine and suited the taste of many more buyers imo.
Thanks for voting btw!

I love my iPhone 4 defender case, its huge but i dont have to worry about the phone dropping and cracking in half. As far as the membrane, its not bad.. im indifferent.
After only a short time, the request for a Case-mate tough case climbed rapidly up their Product Feedback list. It had 90 votes, 16 comments, and ranked 5th. The good news is that they heard your voice... the bad news is that they declined it.
Status: declined
The Pop! is our new version of the "Tough / Hybrid" style case - we won't be adding this version for the Focus, sorry!

Sorry folks, don't know what to tell you. I can't see bringing a Red Pop! case into my next meeting, and it doesn't provide nearly the protection as the Tough Case. This is really disappointing.
Anybody for an Otterbox?
The Pop model is fine if they offer it in another color (like black). A friend of mine has one and it's a really nice case IMO.

PROJECT FINISHED!
So after another full day of measurements and trial-n-error ... I finally got a finished product, well a few actually ... well a finished product with a few options lol.
Right now I'm rocking the Black skin on my Gear Gen.1 and it looks awesome! SO clean and sleek looking with just enough chrome to set it off with an expensive luxury look, but is now fully protected on all of its sensitive spots. The clasp protector was originally made because as a graphic designer, my wrist settled and was banged on a desk basically 8 hours a day, and that was my cure to keep my watch looking brand new. The full face idea came just for the option to change the color of my watch, the stainless steel looks great and all, but gets played out and sometimes just looks too much ... But I dealt with it, not really having any time to sit and work the schematics for a full face protector. Then it got to the point where I had to hang a towel over the hand railing of the treadmill because every once in a while I would accidently bang my watch off of it while doing my cardio at the gym, luckily the steel has held up well and I've always had one of my screen protectors on it, so it hasn't really been a big deal.
Now with a finished product in hand and on my wrist, I'm just kind of pissed I "back burnered" this project for so long! lol. As I stated before, I know everyone has kind of moved on to the new Gear 2 and the Gear 1 is kind of old news, But I still sell GG1 Screen & Clasp Protectors on a daily basis so I know there's still somewhat of a market for stuff like this. Regardless, I'll have my hands on a GG2 here soon to play around with and while doing so I will have a chance to get the measurements for this type of product for the new Gear 2 and possibly Gear Fit, neither have a speaker in the clasp, But I know the Gear 2 has a stainless steel clasp, and speaker or not, that thing is getting banged up ugly from daily use. So all the GG2 people, stay tuned because that project is just around the corner.
Since I originally dropped the GG1 Screen & Clasp Protectors at the end of last year I've seen a boom in people selling products like it on web-stores and places like eBay & Amazon, I'm not saying in anyway that I invented these, But when I made them, the Gear was fresh on the shelves and I couldn't find anything to protect the exposed/sensitive parts of my $300 investment, and once sold to the general public they really took off! and I thank the people here at XDA especially for being my "Beta Testers" in a way and hopefully the people who bought them here were completely satisfied! It was extremely shocking that something I made for fun/necessity turned into an actual marketable successful product and doing it literally as a one man team was a bit much at times, but awesome! ANYWAYS! the difference between what is currently being offered when it comes to full face protectors for the GG1 and what I was able to put together is, my skin covers the ENTIRE front of the gear, As far as I've seen on the net, they only cover the top and bottom portion of the Gears stainless steel face (If I am missing any out there by all means piss on my parade lol) mine are designed to cover the entire front for full protection as well as the option to change the look of the Gear all together. Pretty cool I think.
With all this being said, the only real challenge I faced upon finishing the design was getting the skin onto the Gear and on correctly, the material used for the skin is very flimsy and hard to maneuver, kind of like putting a screen protector on a phone, but worse! lol.
BUT! within a few minutes I had a solution, which was actually a perfect solution. Not only did it do the trick of being able to easily handle the material while putting the face protector on, it made it extremely easy to keep the skin perfectly straight and allow the installer to line everything up perfect for a perfect hassle-free installation (when done correctly) so I am pretty excited about it, and when these become available to the public (Very Soon!) that installation material will be sold with the protectors.
I've also decided to scratch selling the Clasp Protector by itself now that the Face Protector is done and they will be sold as a set, overall less confusing for the customer and myself when it comes to filling an order and just makes more sense. But now that I have a few color options available (more coming very soon!) I think I would be willing to mix and match colors/patterns with the Face & Clasp Protectors if anyone asked.
On that note as you will see in the pictures I currently have 4 color options available:
- BLACK (Jet-Black)
- PURPLE (Deeper Purple, Almost Plum)
- GRAY (Storm Cloud Gray, somewhat close to the gray color offered by Samsung on the Gear 1)
- GREEN (Darker, sort-of hunter Green)
COLORS/PATTERNS I PLAN TO HAVE VERY SOON:
The original Chrome/Steel color I offered with the GG1 Clasp Protectors which seamlessly matched the stainless on the GG1.
- Red
- Yellow
- Blue
- White
- Brown
- Orange
- Carbon Fiber
- Leopard/Zebra Print
And any other Miscellaneous colors/patterns I can get my hands on, just to offer a wide variety and the buyer the option to uniquely express themselves.
And now for the new pictures (Better detail and well-lit pictures to come):
SAME ORIGINAL CLASP PROTECTOR JUST MATCHED WITH FACE SKIN.
And just to show off a little bit of the design aspect of what goes into designing something like this:
Let me know what you think! I cant tell you how happy I am with the final product, it looks awesome in person, these pictures show a great representation, but don't do the final product justice compared to in person, the quality and fit make it look like theres no decal at all, looks like the watch came this way! Very happy!
And again, any and all input appreciated!
Thanks!

ORIGINAL POST:
Hey Guys, I know in my last post on the "Galaxy Gear Clasp Protector Thread" that I said I kind of gave up on further development for the Skin Protectors for the Gen. 1 Gear ... Well I kind of got a second wind on it today and actually sat down and got to work on it, and its a pretty big undertaking as expected, way more variables involved in the front of the Gear than on the clasp ... But I got pretty far on development today and got a few pictures of the first mock up.
They are in Black, That's the original color that I wanted to do all this in to give the watch more of a subtle/played-down look, in my opinion the way Samsung should have originally done it or at least offered the option instead of all the chrome, and I believe the Gear 2 Neo has the full black-out look.
Obviously once this is fully finished, the color and pattern options are endless. One problem I came across while putting this together was covering the side chrome of the watch face (See pictures) which isn't a huge issue to me, gives the watch a little bling and keeps a little bit of the luxury look, this my no be everyone's cup-o-tea, and I may try and play around with a side flap option, problem is, just like the clasp protectors, this can only be able to be achieved with fold cuts. And obviously the Clasp Protector will stay the same because I think I got the best result I can on those, and with any other color besides the original chrome I offered, you can see the Protector is present because of the cut outs and the unprotected chrome areas of the clasp.
Either way, the progress I've made today alone are pretty substantial in my opinion and think I'll have a solid product ready for the public by the weekend. I know the Gear 2 is out and has taken off in popularity, But I plan to stick with my Gen.1 until it dies or they release one that blows my mind, and I can only assume there are still people who feel the same, so hopefully all of this work wont be for nothing, but we'll see.
So without further ado, check the pics and let know what you think ... any and all input is appreciated! Is this something you would think about picking up? any aesthetic adds or changes you'd like to see? again any and all input helps.
Il buy one, looks pretty awesome if i might say so.

I have ordered a skin from both of them. I like that the dbrand's back piece is one piece where slick wraps cut it into three pieces. But I like the the options for the front from slick wraps.
They're an even toss up for me.
Even though I am one who purchased the chrome skin from slick wraps and still haven't received them but they gave me credit to buy another.

I've ordered one from SlickWraps and I have to say it only covers the front properly and the middle back and sides. There are some gaps along the top and bottom. If you want, have a look on my youtube. I have a video on opening and applying it.
I haven't used debrand before but I presume its almost the same.

Have been using dbrand skin with coloured X on nexus 6P, it was the best ever look. Ofcourse has to pay too much import shipping fee and also wait patiently for 40days to reach India.
Unfortunately dbrand skins not available for 7x
But now skinnova provides good skins in close range of Asia, I applied skin to Redmi 4, as I ordered leather one finishing at cutout’s we’re not good as for leather lu look too much corrogoation(leather one doesn’t seems good) but wooden and sandstone versions are awesome
But skinnova doesn’t provide skin on front face for recent mobiles earlier they use to provide may be feedback on issue on handling phone covers.

yes, on the sides as well
Why would they put the skin on the display, that would just render the phone completely useless XD

It’s awesome to convert the look of black front face bezels to white with screenguard like this https://www.amazon.in/dp/B078KXQ3DJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_-DpBAbAH94VRD
I did it on Redmi 4 nice, still thinking not to apply on 6x to exprience it’s blue look for a while, later will join the road...

I ordered a skin from gadget shieldz but i waited for about a month now and it still haven't arrive to me yet and to make matters worse tracking isn't available for country outside India. such a disappoinment. the skin i ordered is the black marble i think.
Sorry to hear that, did you try d-brand.. even there I faced same issue when I ordered on dbrand to ship it to India, no tracking and 40days it took.
In India from gadget shieldz, I got it delivered in 2days in all my last 2orders, they do ship fast seems rest all depend on logistics seems....
Are the skins from skinnova textured or just plain as a paper?

Yes, They offer International shipping including Brazil.
Bought one to deliver to Brazil, it is supposed to arrive within 20 days. I bought the new matrix one with red logo and lens cover.
Thanks for the tip !
Hey there, received the skin last Friday, I don't have another camera to take a picture so I'll just describe it.
The texture is not as deep as it looks on the demo images, but it is really nice, offers a nice grip, a lot less slippery than without the skin. I never used a skin before and I'm not really sure if I applied it correctly but the corners are kinda rough and it collects a lot of dust and hair (I have two cats here to help hehe).
All in all, I'm totally satisfied, I don't like cases at all but since this phone is as slippery as a soap bar I was using the one that came with it. Don't feel the need of a case anymore and it looks really nice.
Thanks for the tip Sanjay022, I'll probably buy another one soon
