Don't exercise without it!
This is my second Polar Heart Rate Monitor. The first, a cute pink F6 met my needs as a beginner in the exercise world. I'm in my mid 40s and have had a sedentary lifestyle so I really needed to monitor my heart rate. I alos wanted to know how many calories I was burning during a workout. The F6 did this and only this. Now that I am exercising more regularly, I wanted more and that is what the FT40 gives me. First, I can change the battery myself without sending the watch back to Polar. Second, the transmitter and strap are two pieces and you can remove the transmitter when you aren't working out so you save on battery life. It's also easier to wear the strap and know that you have it on correctly.
The features in this monitor that weren't on the basic F6 include fitness/fat burning monitors, percentage of fat burned during the workout and the ability to upload your results to the polar website, giving you instant feedback on your progress. It also includes a...

Looking forward to training with my new Polar FT40
I have owned several polar products over the years.... an old M32 watch and transmitter band... a VERY old transmitter band for my over 10 years old Schwinn treadmill. When the battery in my M32 died again I decided it was time to get a new watch, and I like that I can change the battery myself on the FT40.

The band has little slits in it along the entire length into which the buckle can hook, so it can adjust to fit big and small wrists alike. The strap also has a little clip with a hook that will grab one of the slits on the tail end of the band and hold it down, so the clip doesn't slide up and down the band as you wear it. I think those are small but very nice improvements.
The display is large enough for my over-40 messed up vision to read with or without my glasses.
I also purchased the Polar FlowLink. I have a MacBook with the latest version of Mac OS X and I...
Stylish and functional
I bought this heartrate monitor to use while I'm pregnant. It allowed me to set a maximum heart rate to make sure I didn't go above what the doc recommended. It beeps when my heart rate gets too high. I like to see how many calories I've burned at the end of my workout, and it stores your last 16 workouts. Not only is this watch functional, but it's also a good looking watch. I've been wearing it hiking, and with casuals clothes. So, not only do you get a great heart rate monitor, you also get a stylish watch!
