Garmin Approach S1 Europe Golf GPS Watch

Fitsense Sports are pleased to be able to stock the Approach S1 and we have a number of these now available. It is unlike any other golf GPS – Combining a high-sensitivity GPS receiver with a lightweight, flexible sport watch, the Garmin Approach S1 gives you distance information to the front, back and middle of the greens for almost 5,000 preloaded European courses. You can measure individual shot distances, track how far you walk on the course and then use the alarm to get you up in the morning ready for your tee time. Approach S1 is golf‚Äôs first full-featured sports watch and golf GPS in one.

Lock In Yardages And Measure Distances

With Approach S1, you’ll know any course like your home track, with yardages to the front, back and middle of the green. The sunlight-viewable screen features large numbering for at-a-glance visibility. S1 also measures precise yardages for shots played from anywhere on the course. And for those who like to walk, there‚Äôs the S1 odometer to tell you how far you travelled ‚Äì on the course and off.

No Downloads, No Subscriptions

Unlike many golf GPS devices on the market, S1 comes preloaded with almost 5,000 European courses – and we’re adding more all the time. There’s no need for subscriptions, downloads or additional set up – S1 is ready to tee off out of the box.

Sleek Everyday Watch

S1‚Äôs cool look belies its tough, rugged, waterproof design. Fitted for course playability, S1 also functions as an everyday watch. There‚Äôs an alarm, rechargeable lithium-ion battery and S1 sets its time and time zone automatically, so you’re ready to go wherever you’re playing across Europe.
