You won't notice a difference. Just get the aluminum. Save the money. You know what? nobody else will care or notice you're not wearing the stainless steel as well.
Couldn't care less what others think. Back when I got the series 2, there was a noticeable difference. I like the weight, and the look better on stainless in the past. Also, the screen is more scratch resistant as I have hit the face countless times and thankfully no scratches or cracks.
I guess I need to try the aluminum one on sometime again as it has been years since I have held one.

Similarly… the aluminum doesn't give the same personal satisfaction. I returned mine. Spend the money for the stainless and move on.

Another difference is that the aluminum watches have Ion‑X glass while the titanium watches (Apple offers titanium instead of stainless steel with the Series 10) have sapphire crystal. Sapphire very resistant to scratches. If you don't care about scratches (or you're not prone to accidental scuffs), then save yourself the $300 by going with aluminum.
I currently use an aluminum Series 6 that my wife handed down to me last year when she purchased an Ultra 2. My wife managed to get a few noticeable scratches/scuffs on the Series 6 in her 3 years with it. After 1 year with her Ultra 2 (which has sapphire crystal), her watch glass still looks pristine.
Except for the gold diggers 😂

… or buy a $10 glass screen protector and avoid the $300 *and* scratches
Honestly I'm up in the air on continuing to give Apple money on these watches. Nothing since the 5 has interested me but I'm more or less forced to due to software patches.
Garmin highly interests me except the lack of responding to messages from the watch and my next appointment in the watch face kindof suck.
I always had stainless steel watches until Series 10 which I bought in the jet black finish and I am so happy with it. It feels premium and no scratches since launch plus it is so much lighter. I added AppleCare+ which was still cheaper than buying the SS casing.
My first watch was aluminum. I have noticeable scratches on the body. I don't know if the stainless is more scratch resistant
