    Just get it

    This watch is great not only better for golf but as a smartwatch as well. I had the S60 B4 this it was great but this went to a whole new level. Since I had the S60 previously the virtual caddy was working on my first round. And maybe it’s just me but this watch knows my game much better than I do after the first couple suggestions I was this things is wrong and just hit what I normally would but then decided to just trust it and I’m glad I did. So if this is your first Garmin that keeps your club stats just give it time to learn about you. I was blown away when I hit the suggested clubs and shoot a very good round in a course I’ve never played

    It does everything as expected. I love all the golf features as well as the health awareness apps. The watch does so much. Haven’t even began to touch the surface of what it actually the watch will do. Battery life is excellent. No regrets buying it.

    Worth every penny

    Great screen and I love the accuracy. It was a bit tough to figure out how to use it for all of its feature, but after a few YouTube videos, I was squared away. I can't believe the clarity on the screen, and battery life is amazing.

    Garmin S70

    I’m a senior and I play a lot of Golf, this is my second galaxy watch, the first won had a burn mark on the face that would not go a way, this s70 works great, the problem is when there is 2 golf holes close together it gets a mistake. And the Battery life is 36 wholes, if there is slow play you may be in a little trouble.

    Absolutely Best Golf Watch Ever

    I previously gave the S70 four stars as I was having a problem with it going into sleep mode. I finally figured it was doing because the sleep mode was set to 6:30 pm not am. Great display. Works well for walking, running as well as golf. It is so easy to use and I found it easy to add watch faces from the App Store. I really love the bright display and the looks of the watch. I have the 47mm size and it is perfect for my small wrist. Also love the much longer battery life compared to the S62. I had my S62 for a couple of years and it was really good, but the S70 is so much better in terms of battery life, display, and the c type connector.

    Loaded with Features but Lots to Manage

    I bought this for a trip to play Pebble Beach and found lots of features but still getting use operating it. Found it linked quick and easy and keeping score to include total score plus puts and penalties was easy. Editing a bad input was simmering I haven’t mastered yet. Battery life is very good. Another thing I couldn’t master was displaying the golf hole, only the yardage was visible. I expect I’ll enjoy it more as I use it more.

    S70 is worth it

    Had my S70 over two years now. Works great and the slope distances are accurate. I also have a Z82 which I use when I can’t tell where the pin is. Plays like distances are a little aggressive.

    AWESOME WATCH

    Finally got a couple of rounds in with my new S70 watch. Love the look and style. 47mm definitely was the best choice for me. Still trying to get used to using on the golf course. But, bottom line is this is a great choice for upgrading my almost 6 year old S60 watch. Pricy? Yes. VERY GOOD WATCH!!

    Frustration .

    I still have not use it to play golf. Have not figured out how to make it work as a golf watch. The enclosed "instructions" are totally inadequate. So Iooked on youtube to find someone demonstrating, and found a long video in which a gent with an accent speeds through the seemingly thousands of ways to use it. I think you have to download an app onto your phone and/or PC/Mac? I do like the feature of customizing the watch face. Found a beautifully simple analog face in red, white, and black. Sharp Would like to keep the watch. Someone HELP me.
