How durable are the series 9s (alien.top)

I picked up a new series 9 in aluminum yesterday as my first Apple watch and I am curious as to how worried I should be about scratching the screen and water damage. For context I work in an office but I also tend to hike now and again. I couldn’t seem to find a clear cut answer on what will and wont scratch these screens or how careful I should be when wearing it.

The screen on aluminum Apple Watches scratch easily. Everybody that says otherwise is eighter treating it like eggshells or is lying.

Just get the ultra and you don’t have to worry about

So it sounds like either I need to get a screen protector which Ive ordered or Apple Care+ just in case

I scratched mine on the first day, still don’t know how I managed to do it.
