I have a Apple Watch Series 5 GPS only thats been at 80% for months but the battery life is horrible. Getting worse. Once it drops below 80, I plan to take it to Apple for a battery replacement. Do they replace the battery or give me a refurbished unit?

You take it in, they check it for other damage besides the battery and if there is none then they accept it for battery service.

You do get a refurb, but this is an Apple refurb so while the internals may have been used before, the case will be completely new and I distinguishable from an off the shelf item.

Would they care about an inch long scratch on the screen?
