Thinking of getting one golf GPS watch. Anyone have any good recommendations or reviews?

I think I went with one buddy to HH with his WT5 then and after the game, realised it fogged up inside. He sent it back for warranty claim and it took very long. Think he sold it off after a 1-1 replacement

oh really? have a few friends using the WT4 and WT3. All works like a charm, with details to hazards and pin positions.

Better than the Garmin or Tom Tom series imo.

I own a Garmin Approach S3, I can move the pin position around the green but what helps most is the distant to front/back edge of green.

Honestly, today's app on mobile phone are more likely to function better than the gps watch. I'd suggest to spend on a rangefinder if you haven't owned one yet; I find it helpful at driving range too.

Just to share some info and I have benefited from much info shared on other tropics by bro here. 

I owned and use a WTS4 but wont recommend it.
1) Cannot be used at Kranji despite all updates etc and have checked with WTS sole dealer they also confirm cannot be used. Garmin can be used as I have tried it.
2) During a raining golf day, forget to remove watch and "spolit" so have to wait few days for it to "dry" before it can be use again. The LED also not function well after that.

My own conclusion: Wont buy it again.

I'm a WT3 user. It's easy to use and fuss-free. But I've realized that all the measurements in the world (however accurate) wouldn't help my horrible golf. Measurements are great if your distances are dialed in. If not, they're just numbers on your wrist/phone.

I'm using Bushnell neo XS. I find it quite useful. Especially when I play at the courses which measure in yard or difficult to read the distance base on the distance markers.
