Amazon.com Product Description
Packed with a number of innovative training features to help you toward your exercise goals, the Polar F7 heart rate monitor watch is stylish and ultra-reliable. The F7's most important function is to check your body's daily condition and guide you to a suitably intense workout, as people benefit from different workouts on different days. However, that's certainly not the watch's only major function. The F7 also includes a Zone Pointer, a visible and audible feature on the display of your heart rate monitor that shows your target heart rate zone and where your current heart rate sits within that zone. The Polar Own Cal function, meanwhile, tracks your energy expenditure during a single exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories throughout the week. As you progress, you can set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure, helping you achieve both short- and long-term goals. The company also included two other Polar-exclusive features: OwnZone, which guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine and automatically determines a safe and effective exercise heart rate zone; and OwnCode, a technology that blocks unwanted crosstalk signals from other heart rate monitors nearby, ensuring your heart rate data is transmitted clearly. The latter feature is particularly helpful when exercising with other people, such as in aerobic or spinning classes. The F7 offers most of the traditional fitness watch functions as well, including measuring your heart rate in both bpm and as a percentage of your maximum heart rate, gauging your average heart rate, calculating the number of kilocalories you've expended over several exercise sessions, tracking your cumulative training time during a week, and determining your total time in your target zone. Plus, you can use the built-in Fitness Exercise Diary to track the rest of your weekly training progress. The diary function monitors the weekly frequency, total time, total training count, and amount of calories burned during each training session. It also displays the intensities of your weekly workout sessions. Other details include a Fitness Bullets feature that shows a bullet on the monitor's display for every 10 minutes you spend exercising/training in your target heart rate zone; SonicLink and UpLink ports, which let you upload exercise settings to your PC or Polar's web service and edit wrist unit settings respectively; HeartTouch button-free operation; a 24-hour clock with a day/week indicator; visual and audible target zone alarms; and a low battery indicator. Water-resistant to 50 feet, the Polar F7 carries a two-year warranty. About Polar
Polar invented the first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the '80s. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, heart rate training is employed by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight, and Polar is the leading heart rate monitor brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide. The company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.

Buy it yesterday! I love love love my Polar F7. Go for the F7 and not the F6, the chest strap is nicer. I will not go to the gym without this HRM! Very easy to use. There are a lot of features for those who like gadgets. Love it!
Get it right now!

I bought the Polar F7 a couple months ago and so far it does everything I bought it for with zero problems. The watch is easy to operate and program. I've even worn the heart rate monitor swimming and it functions fine (just be sure not to press buttons on your watch while under water. I imagine that would damage the watch). It's only been a couple months, but I'll update any change.

I purchased this watch after reading many of the reviews, decided to go with polar, a lot of reviews say that it is difficult to program but instead of reading the manual, go to [...]on the home page you will find, video tutorials, there you will find very detailed videos step by step instructions on how to program the watch. Overall the watch is very nice, accurate HR, has all the functions you will need. It was a little more money than I had originally thought on spending but after looking up information on monitors and learning that the strap makes for more accurate HR, the F7 comes with a better more comfortable strap. Overall great monitor.

I got this HRM to use while running and other fitness activities. So far it works great and was exactly what I expected. The strap is cloth, so it is pretty comfortable. The online workout tracker is great because you can upload your watch data and keep track of all of your exercise. I highly recommend this one!

I switched from a Garmin FR60 (in the morning) to a Polar F7 (by afternoon)and saved $5(Read my Garmin review "Garmin to Polar). I didn't want a Polar because of having to send it in to Polar to replace the battery, but after talking to a store that specializes in running, they suggested bringing into a good watch store to replace the battery and represurize or reseal it and it should be fine (this put me at ease). I did do that for my wife's Polar and it has been working fine. Sat in the locker room for about 5 minutes to set it up with no problems. Probably could have done it without the manual. Did review manual afterwards to better understand some of the features. Thought it was slightly easier to set up than the garmin and the buttons on the polar had better sensitivity. The manual was pretty good except onhow to get to the "Daily File" feature. I just happened to come across it by hitting the buttons and I actually wrote down in the manual better instructions on how to get to the "Daily File". Now that I found this feature, hopefully I can use [...]. I really like the "In Zone" feature. Definately nice features for the average athlete and the more advanced. The alarm feature is nice.
Con:
Volume level. I set it to #2 (the loudest) but it is still hard to hear. I kept looking at my watch.
Pro:
Everything mentioned above. Per the sales rep, this watch has a feature that prevents it from being affected by other hear rate monitors next to me. Nice to wear just as a watch.
