I appear to have damaged my sapphire Apple watch screen. It’s first time i’ve managed this since launch. There’s a lot of discussion on here about the sapphire screen’s scratch resistance. I’d like to know if you think it’s a scratch and if there’s anything i can do to remove it.

Thanks in advance.

Nothing you can do to repair the scratch damage. It looks like your watch band may be what the source of your scratch woes.
 
if you can feel it with your fingernail, it's a "real" scratch, otherwise might be the oleophobic coating, and that's just unavoidable over time.
I am not aware of anything y9u can do on the sapphire screen to "smooth" a real scratch, I had 1 or 2 on my original S4 SBSS but got a new/refurb a month or so ago and it is flawless again
