Never mind that the new Watchskins Ultra is a premium watch protection film designed for luxury timepieces, because you probably did not even know “skins” for luxury watches were a thing. But yes, they exist. Watchskins Ultra is a new product from Watchskins Singapore, and it is essentially a protective film made for people who wince every time their watch brushes against a desk edge.
Watchskins Ultra is designed for luxury watches such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille, Tudor, and several other high-end brands.
The idea is simple. Luxury watches are meant to be worn, yet the moment they pick up a scratch, the regret sets in. Unlike smartphones, you cannot shrug it off and swap the case. The original finish is part of the value, right alongside the movement ticking away inside. Watchskins Ultra aims to keep that original look intact by using premium 3M TPU film with self-healing properties, allowing minor surface marks to fade over time with heat.
Watchskins Ultra is designed to address the usual complaints collectors have about protective films. No glue residue when removed. No awkward edges. No ill-fitting patches that make an expensive watch feel like it is wearing a bad jacket. Each film is custom-measured and laser-cut in Singapore using U.S.-engineered precision equipment, achieving micron-level accuracy and up to 99 percent edge-to-edge coverage on protected areas. The result is a film that stays virtually invisible once installed and does not interfere with wearing comfort.
Installation is handled by trained specialists in a controlled environment, following the exact contours of each watch model. The film leaves bezels, crowns, and bracelet links accessible, protecting exposed surfaces without altering how the watch feels or looks on the wrist. It is compatible with major luxury brands, including Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille, Tudor, and several others.
Each installation also includes complimentary watch care services valued at S$100. These cover professional steam cleaning, timekeeping checks, and water resistance testing. Every Watchskins Ultra installation comes with a one-year warranty, which should help ease the anxiety of anyone trusting their watch to something that sticks on.
Watchskins Ultra is available exclusively at the Watchskins Singapore service centre at Far East Plaza, with same-day installation available by appointment. I guess this is kind of like a smartphone case. Some like it naked, some would rather take the safe route. In other words, it is protection for people who actually wear their watches and want them to stay that way.
Pricing starts at S$298.
