What customers say about "Key Specs"
Garmin Approach S10 Lightweight GPS Golf Watch
- This watch is simple to use, very slim and lightweight and it's rectangular shape is much less intrusive
- it's GPS system is more accurate than other watches.
- I particularly like that it also provides distances to hazards and dog legs.
- This watch is as accurate as I can be, so we are good to go.
- Nice. On the one outing so far, the watch knew exactly where I was, loaded the course, and proceeded to operate flawlessly for the whole round.
Garmin Approach X10 Lightweight GPS Golf Band
- Bought this for my wife. She loves it. Perfect size for female wrist. Very attractive color and extremely accurate and easy to use.
- Everything it says it does it does. Yardages are very close to perfect.
- It does what it is supposed to do and does it well. Measures yardages on the golf course and it's easy to navigate to the other screens (green views, measure distances etc.)
- Use for yardages on approach shots. One course had GPS units on the carts and the garmin yardages matched their yardages so I know the unit is accurate.
- This watch will provide all needed golf distances, time and date.
