This Garmin Approach S12 in the white couloured 2025 edition is the entry-level golf watch with monochrome screen. If you want to stay focused on your game and the course, this accessible golf watch is ideal for you. It's uncluttered, easy to use and it chooses the course you play on based on your location. With over 43,000+ pre-installed golf courses worldwide and lifetime free updates, it shows the distances to the hole from start, end and centre of the green, as well as obstacles and doglegs on the holes. Complete a hole and walk from the green to the next tee box and the watch automatically moves on to the next hole, including during competitions because use of the S12 is allowed.

_{Know the score}

For added convenience, you can track your score directly on your Approach S12. At the end of the lap, the watch gives an overview of the total distance played, total time and score. As it is also just a comfortable watch for daily use, it also displays the current time and date, including sunrise and sunset. Feel free to play a number of rounds. The rechargeable battery lasts up to 30 hours in GPS mode. You don't have to worry about the waterholes either, as the Approach S12 is water-resistant up to 5 ATM (50 metres). Suitable against: Water splashing, rain or snow, showering, swimming, jumping into the water and snorkelling. The screen can be read even when the sun is shining on it and the S12 pairs perfectly with the Garmin CT-10 sensors and Garmin Golf App via both iPhone and Android with Bluetooth.
