The newer, bezel-less models feature custom wrist straps with unique color combinations, including pink and white for the 40mm model, and black and green for the 44mm variant. On the other hand (no pun intended), the Galaxy Watch Golf Edition is available only with a 46mm dial in the standard Silver flavor.All of these Golf Edition smartwatches have Bluetooth connectivity but lack built-in 4G. Aside from getting a reskin and pre-installed golf-related software features, they retain the original specifications, but the same can’t be said for their prices.The Galaxy Watch Golf Edition is now available in the UK for £359, while the standard model would set you back £299. The 44mm Galaxy Watch Active 2 Golf Edition costs £339, up from £259, and the 40mm model is not yet in stock but should arrive soon.
