Garmin S12

[Lord Tyrion]

The strap on my S1 snapped a few weeks back and my attempts at managing with it have not worked as well as I would have liked. I have a bit of cash spare so am looking at replacing it. I don't need an all singing and dancing one and the S12 seems to fit the bill. Anyone using one, any negatives that I need to be aware of?

Like the S1, I am looking for front, middle and back of the green. This also gives distances to hazards so that will be a bonus. Additional bits don't interest me.

If there's nothing wrong with the S1 I'm sure you can just get a new strap from Amazon. That's what I do with my Fenix 3.

You can't replace the strap on that model, it was moulded to the watch. Lots of complaints, they changed it for future models. People, on here, gave tips for bodging a fix, I have also attached it to my bag using a clip. I would rather go back to a proper watch, on my wrist.
