The SkyCaddie LX5 Ceramic GPS Golf Watch, also known as the SkyCaddie LX5C, combines SkyGolf's advanced wearable golf GPS technology with a more luxurious ceramic-bezel finish. Designed for golfers who want premium styling without compromising on course information, the LX5C provides detailed full-colour golf mapping through a brilliant 1.39" AMOLED touchscreen.
More than 35,000 SkyGolf ground-verified course maps provide the foundation for detailed HoleVue® graphics, IntelliGreen® green information and dynamic distances throughout the round. Golfers can zoom and pan around the hole, examine potential landing areas, measure distances to targets and obtain valuable information about the green before deciding which shot to play.
With its distinctive ceramic bezel, high-resolution touchscreen, powerful multi-core processor, integrated shot tracking and everyday smartwatch functionality, the SkyCaddie LX5C is designed for golfers seeking one of the most sophisticated GPS watches in the SkyCaddie range.
The defining difference between the SkyCaddie LX5C and standard LX5 is the Ceramic model's premium bezel. The ceramic surround gives the watch a more sophisticated appearance, making the LX5C particularly appealing to golfers who intend to wear their GPS watch both on and away from the golf course.
It retains the advanced golf technology associated with the LX5 platform while introducing a more premium aesthetic for golfers who want their golf GPS to look as refined as the rest of their equipment.
A large 1.39" AMOLED colour touchscreen provides the visual centrepiece of the LX5 Ceramic. With a 454 x 454 resolution, the display is capable of presenting detailed golf course graphics while remaining clear and responsive during play.
The touchscreen interface makes navigating the course straightforward. Golfers can interact directly with the hole map, zoom into important areas and move around the display to investigate distances before selecting a club.
The LX5C provides access to more than 35,000 SkyGolf ground-verified course maps. SkyGolf uses professionally trained mappers and GPS equipment to collect course coordinates on the ground, providing a database created specifically for golfers.
Course information can also be updated as golf courses change, helping ensure the GPS information reflects important alterations to hazards, bunkers, greens and hole layouts.
HoleVue® transforms the LX5C from a simple yardage watch into a visual course-management tool. Detailed colour graphics show the layout of the hole, allowing golfers to better understand hazards, landing areas and the route towards the green.
Zoom and pan functionality lets you investigate specific parts of the hole and obtain more precise target information. This can prove particularly useful on unfamiliar courses where the ideal strategy may not be obvious from the tee.
SkyCaddie's patented IntelliGreen® technology provides a dynamic representation of the putting surface based on your current position.
Rather than displaying the green from a fixed direction, IntelliGreen® adjusts according to your angle of approach and provides useful front, back and intermediate distance information to help improve club selection.
On supported courses, IntelliGreen® Pro adds another level of information by displaying major green features such as tiers, contours, false fronts and mounds.
Understanding where these features sit within the putting surface can help golfers identify more appropriate landing areas and avoid leaving themselves in particularly difficult positions.
With PinPoint®, golfers can enter compatible pin-sheet or zone information and obtain a distance to the relevant pin position through the IntelliGreen® display.
This means useful target information can still be available when the flag is obscured or when playing a blind approach, removing the requirement to physically see and aim at the flag as you would with a conventional laser.
When detailed graphics aren't required, the LX5C can provide clear front, centre and back distances in an easy-to-read format.
These yardages dynamically update as you move around the golf course, allowing quick distance checks before selecting your next club.
The LX5 Ceramic uses SkyCaddie's Intelligent Automation™ to keep interaction during the round to a minimum.
The objective is simple: have the information ready when you need it without making the watch a distraction during the round.
Built-in shot tracking allows the LX5C to record additional information about your game, including which clubs you use, how far you hit them and where shots are played from.
After playing, compatible round information can be synchronised to SkyGolf 360, where golfers can explore their performance in greater detail and identify areas that may require improvement.
Scores can be recorded directly on the LX5C during the round, eliminating the need to rely exclusively on a paper scorecard. Additional statistics can include total putts, fairways, greens in regulation and round time.
Tracking these measurements over multiple rounds can provide a much clearer indication of strengths and weaknesses than looking at the final score alone.
An ultra-fast multi-core processor provides responsive operation and helps the watch quickly process GPS and course information.
The LX5C also incorporates a multi-constellation GNSS receiver, helping provide dependable satellite positioning as you move around the golf course.
Integrated Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n connectivity allows compatible updates and course information to be downloaded wirelessly, reducing the need to connect the watch to a computer.
Bluetooth® 4.2 provides additional wireless connectivity with compatible SkyGolf services.
The high-capacity rechargeable Li-Polymer battery is designed to provide up to two rounds of golf from a single charge, depending on usage and settings.
A magnetic charging cable is supplied for straightforward charging between rounds.
The LX5C has been designed to function as more than a dedicated golf device. Multiple watch faces allow golfers to customise its everyday appearance, while integrated fitness functions make it useful away from the course.
Heart-rate monitoring, step counting, step goals, stopwatch and timer functionality combine with the premium ceramic bezel to create a golf watch that can comfortably remain on your wrist after leaving the 18th green.
