Im in the market for a polar watch. I know they are really good. Just wondering what watch(model) would you recommend?

I just bought an FT7 and have only gotten the chance to use it once so far (as far as the heart rate monitor goes), but it was really easy to program and the black and gold watch is definitely something I can wear to work.0

FT4 and FT7 are great!! I have the FT60 now... I wanted the ability to manually set my VO2 Max so that is why I chose the FT60... All are great though...0

Ft7!
You can upload to the polar website and join in calorie challenges. This is the basic watch but you can upload which makes it so much more fun!
From my research, and one of my coworkers got the GPS and it did not work good. I don't recommend it. The Ft4 can't upload online to track all of your workouts.0 -
I love my Ft7!!! "Heart Rate Monitors USA" has a good comparison sheet for the Polar HRMs. I thought the Ft4 and the Ft7 were pretty close in price so I went with the Ft7 because it had a couple more options that I thought would be helpful. I am thrilled with the purchase! Good luck shopping, you will love which ever model you decide on!0
