Here is a first look at the model:
The MARQ Golfer expresses passion for the game not only elite in function but also in design.
The MARQ Golfer Design
As with the rest of the MARQ collection, Garmin carefully selects materials that are high quality as well as thought out design elements. In the case of the MARQ Golfer, it has been tailored to suit the needs of the game. At a first look, the feature that is most distinguished is the rich green ceramic bezel. It measures at 46mm and comes with 18 custom-etched hole markings.
Complimenting the green bezel is the Triton green jacquard-weave nylon strap which sits comfortably on your wrist. A pine green rubber strap also comes with this model for optimal interchangeability. For those that like to mix up their style on a daily basis or on the course, the strap can be interchanged with other Garmin straps so that you can find your own signature look.
The dial is protected by a domed sapphire lens which offers ultimate scratch resistance as well as a shape that stands out. The movement is housed within a titanium case which is lightweight and won’t effect game play.
The MARQ Golfer Functionality
The MARQ Golfer has been created with the wearer in mind. The specialised features crafted for this watch are like no other. It comes with 41,000+ pre-loaded course maps so that as you play golf all over the globe, you will be able to track your play. There is also the option to get updates in the courses that you regularly play. If you find yourself in need of a caddie, the MARQ Golfer will be able to assist you with a virtual caddie which will help you with club suggestion and aim. To compliment the virtual caddie there is also a Wind Speed function so that you can pick the club and the direction to swing even in poor weather conditions.
Greenview is another function that will benefit your aim during play as this feature gives you each greens true shape, wherever you are so that you can move the pin with greater accuracy. On the larger sections of the course it is always beneficial to know the hazards throughout the course so you know what to avoid and this can be tracked with the Hazard View feature.
