I had wondered the same before seeing @Gordon reply in another thread that it is ambient temperature, not skin temperature. My instinct is that it won't be reliable for body temperature or room/external temperature because of proximity to busy without contact (not that I can't imagine uses for it). I searched for watches with the same heart rate sensor and not enough of them advertised body temperature for me to believe it was a function of that sensor and not another they might have.
