Garmin Approach S42

Play with confidence. Garmin has got your game with Approach S42, a GPS golf smartwatch that’s designed for lowering your score on the course and upping your style off the course.

Your watch comes preloaded with more than 42,000 Course maps of golf courses around the world. Download updates for the course you play most often. With a large 1.2 Inch easy-to-read colour touchscreen display with metal bezel is stylish and lightweight.

Whether you just got done with a game and find yourself in the clubhouse or you want to hit the town, Approach S42 is great for everyday wear. If you like to change watch bands as often as you change your course, no problem. Choose from interchangeable quick release bands.

The Green View feature gives you each green’s true shape from wherever you are on the course, and it allows you to drag and drop the pin for greater accuracy. You can quickly reference distances to the front, middle and back of the green so you have all the data you need for the perfect shot. Pair with the Garmin Golf app for strokes gained analysis, to participate in leader boards and tournaments and to gain more data about your game.

The Garmin Approach S42 is full of features. Take advantage of built-in sports apps and activity-tracking features, including the move bar, vibration alerts, calories, steps and sleep. With Smart notifications you can receive emails, texts and alerts right to your watch (when paired with a compatible smartphone).
