The Garmin Approach S42 is a GPS golf watch with a 1.2-inch color touchscreen and a lightweight plastic case. It comes preloaded with over 42,000 golf courses and offers full-color course maps, giving distances to the front, middle, and back of the green. It also tracks steps, sleep, and supports running and cycling, making it a capable everyday fitness watch. Compared to rivals like the Approach S62, it lacks advanced features such as a heart rate monitor and virtual caddie, but it delivers core golf functionality at a lower cost. Reviewers praise its accuracy and ease of use, though some note the screen can be hard to read in bright sunlight and the battery life is shorter than advertised when using GPS.
