I’m Kevin, your host here at Garmin’s training video series.
We’ve heard from you avid golfers out there.
You want a watch that will not only help you improve your game, but will allow you to enjoy your time both on and off the course.
Well today, I’m here to tell you about a premium, purpose-built golf watch that has both functionality and style.
Let me introduce you to the Garmin Approach S62.
We’ve designed the Approach S62 with many of the same great features as the S60 that you’ve come to know and love
such as full CourseView mapping, PlaysLike Distance, and easy to use Touch Targeting.
But we’ve also added some cool, new features to guide you on the course.
This watch could give you the competitive edge to turn your friendly game of golf into a fierce competition with your friends.
Throughout all of those countless rounds, you’ve probably wished many times that you had a caddie with you to make suggestions on what club to hit and where to aim.
I know I’ve wished for a caddie on those tough rounds.
Well, your wish is granted with the S62.
With the virtual caddie, you’ll get a suggested club based on the typical distance you hit that club.
It even factors in wind speed and direction, and will draw a target indicating where you should aim on the preloaded course map.
Wait, did I just say it factors in wind speed and direction? Yes, I did!
We all know that wind speed and direction have a significant impact on the path of the ball, and it can make some shots so frustrating.
So even if you’re not utilizing the virtual caddie, we want to help take some of that frustration out by displaying wind speed and direction,
sent from the Garmin Golf App, right on the watch.
This makes figuring out which club to use and which direction to swing much easier.
So, let’s talk hazards. Time and time again, we’ve hit that perfect shot just to come up short and land in a hazard.
Why isn’t there an easy solution to see each hazard on a map and get distance info so we know what to avoid?
Well, there is.
With the S62 you can now quickly scroll through each hazard on the map and get that critical distance info you are looking for.
Golf is more than just a game.
It’s all of those memories along the way and you deserve a way to capture those memories.
You can do just that with the Performance Stats Widget.
The stats from your rounds are calculated in the new Golf Performance Stats app, then sent to your watch, allowing you to review your approach,
handicap index, fairway hit/miss and shot hit/miss percentage, and green in regulation percentage.
Then when you’re wearing the S62 out with friends, you can share those memories with them.
This watch is so much more than just a golf device.
It also acts as a companion timepiece with its smartwatch features and daily activity tracking.
And let’s face it - if you’re wearing it every day you want it to stay looking fresh and resist normal daily abuse and scratches.
So we’ve given the S62 a Ceramic bezel with a Gorilla Glass lens.
And since you need a watch that allows you to quickly and easily see your info in the heat of the moment,
we’ve made the display of the S62 even larger than the S60.
To top it off, you won't have to worry about the battery life.
You’ll be able to get your rounds in with up to 20 hours in GPS mode, double the life of the S60, and up to 14 days in smartwatch mode.
And no matter if you’re in the middle of a heated round or just wearing it out on the town,
you’ll also have access to your heart rate data with the wrist-based heart rate monitor.
As you can see, this premium golf watch was built to take your game to the next level, and it doubles as a sleek, easy to use, timepiece with all-day wearability.
We’ve got your game – with the Approach S62.
