In the past I have owned two Bushnell Neo XS golf watches, both of which had the plastic crystal covering the display fall out after about 1 year and was lost somewhere on the course... After the second one had this happen I needed to purchase another golf watch and I decided to switch to this Garmin S10 as the quality of the Bushnell was definitely a problem... I'm glad I did... This watch is simple to use, very slim and lightweight and it's rectangular shape is much less intrusive especially since I wear it on my glove hand... It seems to me that it is better built than the Bushnell's I have owned... I do not need a fancy watch, just one that gives the proper distances to both the green and hazards, and, has excellent battery life... I don't use the scoring option and I don't use the app to upload my scores to the Garmin website... This watch gives accurate distances and advances to the next hole flawlessly... One thing I noticed over the Bushnell is when I forget to start the watch until after I finish the first hole... The Bushnell forced me to advance the watch to the proper hole, but this Garmin immediately recognized what hole I was on and needed no adjustment... This leads me to believe that it's GPS system is more accurate than other watches... The only drawback is that the Garmin takes a little more time for it's GPS to come up and recognize the course I am at... However, it is not much more time, and, I just set it to start the round a little earlier than I did with my Bushnell... If you want a golf watch that is accurate, lightweight, very unobtrusive on your wrist , and, you don't need all the fancy bells and whistles, this is the watch for you... -

I just bought this device, and I am so far very pleased. I have been using various golf apps on my iPhone for the last five years. These apps work, but they are not at all convenient. Friends have a range of golf watch brands; all of them were in the $400 range and seemingly bulky. This one has the right features and price for me, so I bought it for myself for Christmas.
I had been concerned that the weight of one of these devices would be bothersome during my golf swing, but after a minute, it feels so light that you forget you are wearing it. 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. A couple of times, it helped to walk a few additional feet on the tee away from the previous green to have it automatically index to the next hole. Overall, the Approach S10 is just about perfect for the way I play.
The display is excellent in any lighting condition I have encountered. I am not sure how they do that, but it is very impressive.
The battery lasted all day, and assuming it continues to have good battery life, I don't think I will ever need more uptime than it offers. -
