Looks great...but lacking functionality
I was excited to use this product to track my shots and for the virtual caddie feature. This feature has you create your exact bag of clubs in the app. So when you swing your club, it will ask you what you used and you should be able to select your clubs, versus the default every club that is in there. This function has never worked for me, and has resulted in a number ...

Great Upgrade
This is the best golf watch I have ever owned. It is vastly superior to the Apple watch I have been using for years.

Accurate
It has been very accurate. I used a a caddie at Cascata in Las Vegas. The “plays as” distance was spot on either way the caddie.

Great asset both on and off the course.
I have used this numerous time on the golf course and find it invaluable. It truly helps my golf game. The medical end is also great, I monitor my heart rate and this watches great for that purpose.

Near Perfect Golf Watch
Been using the Approach S70 for a few weeks now, and I can't really find anything to complain about. The satellites acquire signal very quickly, transitioning through the functions of each hole/round is pretty easy once you get used to it, and the battery life is phenomenal. The Tempo trainer is nice and helps to focus on steady swings. Being able to utilize other tra...

Needs more user friendly instructions or directio!
Almost 3 months - much too complicated and can’t get settings such as watch face, iPhone sync with activities etc.
GPS golf course distances excellent.
Maybe best to restore factory settings??

The best watch ever!
So I finally got a chance to play a round of golf With my S70, All I can say is wow in conjunction with the C 10 sensors it kept score perfectly. Not really sure I need a rangefinder anymore as every time I double check the distances on the watch versus the rangefinder they were darn near exactly the same. The stats and data feedback after playing around the golf for ex...

Very good, coulld be better
I bought this to replace my S-62, which died. Generally it is better, the display is bright and easy to see. The display settings are a bit of work to get right so the display is on when you need it without a lot of finnicking, but I got it set up right now. I found the standard watch faces are pretty garish, so I need to download something a bit more conventional.. I t...

A great watch but...........
The Garmin S-70 watch is a great piece of technology for golf and fitness tracking. Unfortunately the Garmin S-70 watch does not stand alone. It requires the Garmin app to communicate with in regards to accurately tracking shots, keeping score, and providing this information back to you in a useable manner. Sadly the Garmin app does not live up to expectations. I have f...

Fantastic watch, with lots of features!
I've not want to watch my whole life and I got this primarily for golf but I wear it all the time! Bought this watch a month ago, and never once did I have buyer's remorse. This is an awesome watch with awesome features!

Love the new features
I had the S62 for the last 5 years and decided to upgrade and I am not disappointed. The new features and screen graphics have made my watch an essential when on the course.

Awesome in every way!!
I was hesitant to buy this watch. I had an apple watch and looking for something more golf focused. Well this watch has surpassed all my expectations. Pulse ox, sleep monitor and seamless golf intergration. You lose a few things like apple pay but the wins far outweigh the loses.

Fitness and Connectivity issues.
I like the wach. It is probably overkilled for what I need but I got it mainly for golf and tracking my fitness. However, coming from the apple watch, it is hard to be them when it comes to tracking fitness. It does disconnect a lot from my phone. Never had issues with my apple watch with that. I keep getting a disconnected/connected message on my screen. I dont like h...

great equipment
Super easy to use, don't even notice the size. The ability to move the aim points on the face is very reactive and accurate.

Great Golf Watch
I bought my s70 as I was upgrading from a older Approach watch. I enjoy the accuracy, color screen and it finding my starting hole when I play a shot-gun.

Amazing!
I bought the watch solely for the golf features and now I never shut up about my Body Battery. My only complaint is that I would like for soccer to be one of the pre-programmed workouts that can be tracked. It has Badminton but not soccer? Anyway, watch is fantastic and I wear it all the time.

Some concerns
A few things that I'm struggling with:
1. I cannot pull up a golf course on the watch...I can on my Iphone through the Connect app., but not on the watch.
2. My Connect app does not sync with the watch. Seems like Garmin and Apple do not want to communicate.
