You sir, are a star. Thanks!

I can't believe I missed this. I suspect most others who have this watch are also oblivious.

I'd be very interested to know if you find an alternative screen protector that fits, or if it's an existing one cut-down. Do please share if you find one.

Cheers again!

 
Hey, thank you, I was about to give up on this thing as I couldn't get the Google stuff on it.
 
I am just going to try to cut down a bigger protector.  
 
Another note is that mine steamed up inside when I turned it on the first time !    I put it in front of a fan heater for a while and tried again, it still steamed up when I turned it on, so I let it go and a couple of hours latter it was all fine.   Maybe something left over from manufacturing ?   Also my 4Gig SD was dodgy and tonight failed completely when I was copying music across to it.  Lost everything on it.    No big deal, I had a spare 16Gig card so that is running in it now.

ok first screen protector is a fail I tried the meta watch screen protector but it is smaller only cover's the screen but not the black border.Will keep you up to date.
 
for those that want to make your own the application card that came with the meta watch screen protector is an exact fit to the AN1 screen you can use the application card as a templet to cut your own.
