In its case.
Does anyone here use protective cases for your Apple Watch? Here's my Series 5 watch in a Supcase, a combination case/band. I used this watch for almost 2 years, and when the edges started looking a little scuffed up I decided to case it to prevent any further damage. I chose blue to match it to my new blue iPhone 13, and of course the screen color was changed to blue, too.

My S5 came with a catalyst case/band, used it for awhile in the surf but the band is a bit short and would pop out, still got it good protection if you were a tradie etc.
 
No case here either… I’ve had my SS Series 2 for nearly 6 years and only ever had really minor scuffs, definitely not worth the extra bulk unless you are a tradesman / labourer or something.

I’m just about to replace it for a series 7, my series 2 is still going strong though (albeit a little slower). The Battery still lasts all day and other than my calculator it’s probably the longest I’ve ever kept an electronic gadget. I’ve had 3 phones in that same 6 years.
 
I like the Supcase on my AWs5 so much, I bought a Supcase for my Eye Phone 13. I got it two days ago, and it is a very good protective case.
 
I use Misxi Hard PC case with Tempered Glass Screen Protector. I didn't want to risk scratching either the case or the screen. I am rather hard on watches.

Looks nice. I don't use cases, and for 3 years of using my watches looks good. There are some small scratches on the screen, but at all they are ok.

Tried a case but ditched it soon after. The watch is pretty low profile and hitting it against objects wasn’t as frequent as some of my larger stainless steel sport/diver watches
 
I'm using those kind of case that fast clip on the screen, just when I'm gardenning.
You can put and remove them fast, whitout taking out the watch.
