    PRODUCT DETAILS

    Short on time? Here are 3 things you need to know about the Garmin Approach S42 Golf GPS Smartwatch:

    • Approach S42 = Heavy on Features, Mid-Level Price - The Approach S42 sits comfortably at the middle price point of Garmin's Approach watches. It has a beautiful color touchscreen, slim form factor and most of the top golf features (minus Virtual Caddie which is only on S62).
    • Big, Color Touchscreen You Can Wear Off-Course - The screen is big and the screen is easy-to-read, even in bright conditions. Plus the watch (which comes in 3 stylish colors) is plenty good-looking to wear on the course and at dinner afterward.
    • Best Bang for Your Buck - We love the S42 and think it's a wonderful middle ground between powerful golf features, a stylish form factor and affordability.

    The Green View feature allows manual pin positioning so you can quickly reference distances to the front, middle and back of the green as well as hazards and doglegs.

    The AutoShot round analyzer measures and auto-records detected shot distances (lie and ball contact may affect shot tracking); pair with optional Approach CT10 club tracking sensors (sold separately) for more automatic game tracking capabilities.

    Pair with the Garmin Golf app (when downloaded on a compatible smartphone) for strokes gained analysis, to participate in leaderboards and tournaments and gain more insights into your game.

    Wear the watch all day, and get smart notifications (when paired with a compatible smartphone) and estimated activity-tracking features.
