Thanks for all the replies! Which stainless do you prefer? I'm thinking either Stainless (shiny) or Black Stainless. Side note: It's really tough to tell the difference in pictures between the Space Gray Aluminum and Space Black Stainless.

There are no reflection issues that would prevent reading the SS display in bright sunlight. Whoever said that is picking nits.

I like the silver SS personally, since I've found it easier to pair more bands with silver than black.

I have never noticed any issue with glare.

But I will say that while my Series 0 stainless steel casing has tons of scratches all over, the screen is still pristine. It’s kinda mind-boggling how impressive that is. It’s been accidentally banged into tons of things, but still not a single scratch or blemish to be seen. Not even a micro scratch. Meanwhile I treat my iPhone X like a baby and its screen still has a couple of micro scratches. Why aren’t they making the iPhone glass out of this stuff?!

I actually bought some stainless polish cloths off amazon and they worked WONDERS on removing all the micro scratches. I do it a couple times a year and it looks like a mirror after giving it some TLC for 15 mins

I think you have mentioned to be careful not to get the cloth on the screen though as to not remove the coating on the screen, correct?

Correct. If you have contact with the coating on the screen, it can cause a separation or blotchy look to it. Just take your time when using the cloth.
