replacing battery on iwatch, series 4, i was advised that they will send me a new watch instead of replacing battery of my series 4, Does anyone know if they will send a more current series watch back, or other?

They will send you exactly the same model you sent them. And it will not be brand new off the assembly line. It will be refurbished.

I forgot to add that the refurbished device will be absolutely indistinguishable from new. I've had a number of things replaced by Apple this way and it's always fine. I've also purchased a number of Macs from the Apple Refurb Store, also a great experience.
