Just watched the Key Note, and they didnt address if the Apple Watch Editions come like the Series 4 with a Sapphire Front Glass.. I know that the Hermes and SS series 4 did. No mention about the Sapphire on the Series 5 they do say the Back is Sapphire nothing about the screen.. Anyone? thanks!

The store has no mention (that I can find) of sapphire glass front on the SS, Titanium, or Ceramic. Maybe an oversight, maybe the always on display prevents the sapphire option? I'm waiting on confirmation before ordering Space Black Titanium. If no sapphire, then I'm going down to aluminum.

EDIT: As copperlab described, the tech specs confirm that series 5 SS, Titanium, and Ceramic does include sapphire front.

Finally got the answer. It is buried on the website. Same as previous years. Aluminum and Nike are ion glass. SS, Hermes, Edition are sapphire front.

To find tech specs. Go to order on apples website. Then select the model you are interred in. Than scroll way down past where you can add it to your cart. You will see Tech Specs.
