The Apple Watch Series 6 has debuted at Apple's "Time Flies" event, along with new features, and case finishes. However, one on-again, off-again case material was absent.
Apple has yet again decided to remove the Apple Watch ceramic case option. Ceramic originally debuted with the Apple Watch Series 3, but not included in the Apple Watch Series 4 lineup in 2018.
It was brought back for the Apple Watch Series 5, which raised the price to $1,299 at the cheapest, with a maximum of $1,749. Apple has yet again decided against adding ceramic to the newest Apple Watch lineup.

Wouldn’t mind it if they engineered a Liquid Metal body version to replace the ceramic. Or a transparent diamond case... that would be pretty spectacular.
The killed off the original deep golden colour of the Watch 4 too. The new gold colour looks cheap by comparison.
And they made the space black SS (DLC) case exclusive to the Hermes edition.
I bought one the ceramic watches last year and glad I did. I had a feeling Apple would pull it sooner or later keeping it a bit elusive.
