Rugged Garmin Forerunner 965 Protective Cover Case

No. The case has an open cutout at the charging contacts, so you can connect your Garmin charging cable without taking the cover off. It stays on your watch day and night for continuous protection of the bezel, edges and screen surround.

It's moulded from soft, flexible silicone that slides over your watch like a second skin. A raised lip sits slightly proud of the display to help shield the screen and titanium bezel from knocks and scratches, and it comes in 8 colours so you can match or refresh your watch's look.

Yes. The shock-absorbing silicone is made for active use — road and trail running, gym sessions, cycling and everyday wear where your watch catches accidental bumps against door frames, weights and rock. It adds grip and edge protection without noticeable bulk, and leaves the buttons and touchscreen fully usable.

The Forerunner 965 has a 47mm case with a bright always-on AMOLED touchscreen and a titanium bezel. The 955 is the same 47mm size but uses a matte, non-glossy display with a plastic bezel, while the 265 and 265S have AMOLED screens in smaller 46mm and 42mm cases. If you're unsure, the model name is printed on the back of the watch, or check Settings > System > About on the device.

This cover is shaped specifically for the Forerunner 965 and is designed for that model only. If you own a different watch, shop the matching range instead — Forerunner 955 owners can visit the Forerunner 955 collection, and every model is listed under Garmin watch bands. For extra screen defence on your 965, pair it with a protector from our Garmin screen protectors range.
