I recently ordered an Apple Watch Series 7 aluminium model (midnight, 41mm cellular). It's going to ship in a weeks time. However I have been contemplating about the scratch resistance of the Ion-X glass used in aluminium models. From what I understand, sapphire crystal (used in steel models) is better for scratch protection but Ion-X is better
On the newer watches sapphire gets you: sapphire glass, lighter titanium metal, double the storage to 32, world maps preloaded, vs you having to load your one region onto 16 gb, and multi-frequency (aka dual-band) GPS positioning. For me, the Sapphire glass is one of the most important things.

Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water. ATM rating. 5 ATM.
Sapphire is very hard, but it has naturally occurring cleavage planes. A blow which happens to transmit force along those planes can cause the crystal to shatter. Mineral crystal is essentially hardened glass. Glass has no cleavage planes and is able to withstand a blow which might shatter sapphire, but it does scratch easier than sapphire.
It's not super soft or anything, but the Pixel Watch screen is made of Gorilla Glass 5, which has a Mohs hardness in the 5-6 range. And there are PLENTY of reports of people's screens shattering from a simple 3-4 foot drop onto a hard surface. Edge-shattering is very common with a material like this.
“Since a base-model Apple Watch is a $200 premium over a base-model Apple Watch Sport, we wondered just how much tougher the sapphire crystal is than the Ion-X glass.” “The sapphire crystal
