I was looking at buying a polar htm and I noticed that they are labeled male and female. Can I buy a male one? I like the colors better :) or is it important that I buy a female one?

    I have a "female" one, but you still have to program gender when you set it up, so it shouldn't matter

    The wrist size may be different, but they all can be programmed Male or female as far as I know

    I bought a "male" FT7 because I liked the colors better. I was able to program it to female. I think the difference is the size of the watch face and wrist strap (both of which are totally fine for a female).
