Battery life will vary across the sizes, with the Watch Ultra sporting the largest battery capacity at 590mAh.
In terms of protection, all watches in the series will have standard IP6X dust protection, with the Watch Ultra boasting a higher water resistance rating of 10 ATM compared to 5 ATM on the regular Watch 7.
