Fantastic Watch With Features, Esp. Golf

bought this for Golf, didn't know the features for heat rate and others was so good. Plus it does not need to be paired with phone.

More Features Than Expected!

Recently purchased and after setting up and wearing realized that it measures golf (of course) but steps, sleep, breathing, oxygen and more!

He Loves It!

Bought this for my husband for Christmas. It has so many helpful things on it I hope it helps his game!

Great Watch

I have had watch for two weeks and love it. Much easier to operate than the s60 I had before

Watch Is Great But...

The watch is great and works well with the CT1 but there are some backend issues that are frustrating. 1. GPS location is about 20-30 feet off (Hawaii) so it make the putter tracking almost useless because my location is never on the green. 2. The Garmin golf app. The more I use it, the more it disappoints. If the app allowed my to move my shot location to the greens I might be able to mitigate the poor GPS placement but the app doesn't allow you to do that. 3. The Garmin app. Once you add a club in your Garmin app, that club remains in your selections on your shot map. Retire a club? Doesn't matter you still have to scroll by it. Add a club tag that isn't in your bag? Too bad it's there forever. Hopefully the GPS accuracy will improve with some firmware updates and if the Golf app receives some improvement based on the feedback we provide in the Garmin forums this watch will be top tier.
