Aren’t those thermometers pointing the wrong way (towards the wrist)?

There are two, one inward and one outward facing. This was highlighted when talking about taking water temp readings when swimming or diving.

The new Apple Watches will actually have two thermometers, one facing inward and one facing outwards.

No, they have two thermometers, one for ambient temperature and one for body temp.

I would bet that the internal sensor is used in a model with the skin sensor to remove the effects of the internal temperature of the watch and get a more accurate skin temp reading.
