Marware CEO Premiere Case for iPhone 3G/S - Black

Let me first say that this case is awesome when you buy it from the Marware website because it comes with the magnetic holding instead of velcro.

The case is made of durable leather with great stitching that holds it together very well. I bought mine in July and 6 months later it is still in fantastic shape.

On the magnetic version, the magnet is covered by the microfiber inner lining of the microfiber inner lining, meaning the magnet will not come anywhere close harming your phone.

The clip is also covered in leather so it does not scratch your belt.

I ordered one of these for myself from the marware website and it came with a magnetic holding system. When you buy it ANYWHERE else, it comes with Velcro. When I ordered one for my father and boss from Amazon, theirs both came with Velcro. Like a review said before, it is very unprofessional to have to hear the velcro rip everytime my boss wants to take his phone out.

I purchased this case a week after the 3G was released. In my opinion this is the best looking case on the market. The bad news is that it's already falling apart. The small rubber strip on the right-hand side separated, causing the right side of the case to slowly un-ravel. I'm right handed.

I like the design so much I'll still buy another.

I prefer the Magnetic closure to the Velcro as well, and have found on Marware's web site this statement:
"The black C.E.O. Premiere uses a secure magnetic enclosure... The black C.E.O. Premiere sold anywhere other than on Marware's website will use Velcro®."

So While I prefer to shop at AMAZON, if you want a magnetic closure you have to go to the manufacturer's web site/ My experience magnetic closure devices on all my Palm Treos worked very well, with the leather wearing out long before the magnetic clip did.
