The base model Apple Watch Series 8 will reportedly keep the same design and same size configurations as the current Apple Watch Series 7 but will once again come in Silver, according to leaker ShrimpApplePro.

In a post on Twitter, the leaker notes that the base model Series 8 will not be offered in titanium.

-----
Design: sadly it’s staying the same as the series 7 with no design improvement.
The base now doesn’t have titanium anymore.
Aluminum: midnight, starlight, product red, silver
Stainless steel: silver and graphite
The source doesn’t notice any new sensors visually sadly

Although no new sensors were detected, it's unclear if the rumored body temperature sensor is one that would be visually apparent. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has predicted that the sensor will make it into the regular Apple Watch Series 8 and the new rugged edition but not the new SE version.

If this report is correct, users looking for a notable upgrade to their Apple Watch will need to move to the "Apple Watch Pro", a new model which is said to feature a larger and more shatter-resistant display, enhanced tracking for hiking and swimming, longer battery life, and a rugged and premium metal case (likely titanium).
