First, some notes. The Delta Sapphire is Black DLC. The 7X solar sapphire is also black DLC. They do look the same on the case. The 7X bezel looks lighter because it is beveled and reflects light differently. The Delta bezel "steps down" from one level to the next whereas the 7X bezel is one continuous surface.

I quickly dismissed the 5S as being too darn slim, but eventually settled on the original 5. With Sapphire Glass for extra protection. Hmm, that brings it to £590. Might as well spend an extra £40 and get the 5X, complete with Sapphire Glass and 12GB of storage for maps!
I dont rock climb specficially but I do some very technical trail running. I previously had a fenix 5 plus and fenix 3HR both with sapphire screens. I took some wicked spills and have done quite a few 4 point scrambles during races and training. Neither screen ever even got a mark. I roughed up the bezels a bit but I expected that.
