People need to start calling out Apple more by the term.
As mentioned by another user, the cheaper watches have Corning Gorilla Glass 5 instead of Sapphire. Sapphire scratches less and shatters more, Gorilla Glass shatters less and scratches more.
THIS^^^^^^
I always wonder why everyone thinks sapphire glass is so superior.
I've had 2-3 dozen watches and only 2 with sapphire.
BOTH the sapphire watches had their face destroyed (dropped one and hit the other one on a corner) while all my other watches are still ticking (pun intended).
If you're worried about scratches buy a $10 protector from amazon.
Flashlight, accurate HR monitor, sleep sensor, great 30-day battery, durable screen, silicon bands are easily replaceable (and cheap), multiple sports (including skydiving), accurate altimeter, water proof, etc.
If you can afford it and want a solid watch which can handle multiple sports... get it.
Drop in the bucket, in my everyone in my company 46 please

Apple has been this way since the first release of the Mac. Glad you finally took notice.
