Instructions are nowhere to be found.

This watch is excellent; I've used it for two rounds so far. While the instructions are somewhat challenging, I can easily find guidance online. Mastering its features is taking a bit of time, but it's definitely preferable to relying on a golf app on my phone.

We understand that they may be challenging, but we're glad to hear that you were able to find some guidance online.

Excellent watch overall!

The watch is a remarkable sight, combining comfort with outstanding functionality. It serves almost perfectly as a fitness tracker or golf watch. The only minor inconvenience is becoming familiar with its features, much like learning to drive a new car.

Magnificent enhancement to my game.

Beyond its golfing functions, this watch has effectively replaced my Fitbit as my primary timepiece, thanks to its straightforward setup and seamless syncing.

Finest golf timepiece and all other things

Setting up club tracers to monitor shots is straightforward. The GPS activates quickly on every course I've played, delivering accurate distance readings. The club selection tool is exceptionally practical, while the morning summary accurately reflects my energy levels based on sleep. With its sleek and low-profile design, it's quite stylish. I highly recommend it!

Much more than simply a golf watch.

An excellent resource for golf, particularly on new courses. Nonetheless, all other health choices are also outstanding.

Provides extremely useful data, especially when combined with the club sensors.

I bought this set after reading numerous positive reviews and trying it out during a golf resort visit. While I enjoy using it, the price is quite high. The distance measurements to the hole and hazards can be inconsistent, and it doesn't match the user-friendly interface or quality of my usual Apple Watch. However, the bright screen is a definite plus.

More than just a golf watch!!!!

After some time with it, I can assert that this is the best golf gadget I've ever used. Its performance improves with more input, and I truly can't recommend it highly enough. Although the $700 price tag is steep, you're investing in an outstanding golf watch that also functions as an exceptional smartwatch, making it a worthwhile purchase.

Wow, I'm impressed that Garmin actually took note of my feedback. Out of all the "S" series, this...

I'm genuinely impressed with the Garmin S70, despite owning all the watches from the "S" series and never feeling the urge to write a review before. For those, like me, who think spending $700 on a golf watch is excessive, let me warn you: the S70 is an exception. It's a remarkable upgrade with a stunning AMOLED display that is easy to read in any lighting. A nice touch is the auto-light feature when you flick your wristgreat for hands-free use. The built-in step counter and sleep tracker eliminate the need for a smartwatch, while the accurate heart rate monitor and pulse oximeter are beneficial. I appreciate the enhanced fairway graphics and the "Play's Like" feature, though I haven't explored the music option or greens membership yet. After playing 18 holes, my battery still sits at 90%, thanks to the efficient use of features. The S70's charging connection feels much more secure than with earlier models, and the reinforced wristband is a welcome improvement. In conclusion, if you're hesitant about the price, reconsider. This purchase stands out as my best upgrade so far and is truly worth it. Great job, Garmin!

Establishes an exceptionally high level of quality

The Garmin Approach S70 stands out as a worthy competitor to the Apple Watch Ultra, and I initially bought it for golf and fitness tracking. However, I've ended up wearing it more frequently than my Apple Ultra. Its battery life is impressive, lasting over five days compared to the Apple Watch's two days with my usage. In terms of fitness tracking accuracy, the Garmin is in a league of its own. The watch features a bright, easily readable 47mm display, and its watch faces can be customized extensively through the Garmin Connect IQ Store, which also offers a variety of apps. I've found several replacement bands that fit perfectly, and while the initial price felt high, it's proven to be an invaluable investment. I also purchased a charging stand from Amazon, which works well, and I made sure to protect the display with a hard screen protector. The heart rate monitoring and health sensors deliver quick and accurate readings. My favourite watch face, discovered in the IQ Store, highlights the vast selection available, especially compared to the more limited options on the Apple Watch due to its closed ecosystem. For golfers who want reliable fitness tracking, I wholeheartedly recommend the Approach S70.
