Great training tool for runners...until it breaks
I love this watch. I own a Garmin 305 as well which I bought after a disappointing experience with the RS200. My biggest disappointment with the RS200 was that the transfer using one's computer speaker became difficult to impossible after a few months. Although it is an additional purchase, the flow link has solved the problem of uploading data to a users computer. While most competitors don't charge extra for a device to upload data, Polar does include a very comfortable fabric heart rate monitor strap. To upgrade the Garmin rubber strap it costs about the same amount of money as the Flowlink for Polar watches so it is a wash in the end. Nobody does GPS better than Garmin and mine has been a reliable watch. Although my Garmin gives me heart rate information, it is very simple. Polar is certainly more of a training tool and better suited for runners who emphasize heart rate training over simply how far they went. Garmin can give you an aerial map of where you ran but this is not very...

Waste of Money - Hidden Cost
I was excited when I purchased this. I did not even flinch at the cost as I wanted to track my running on the computer. I never got it to sync with the computer. I took it to a running store with the instruction book - they couldn't figure it out either. And the instruction book did not match the screens/menus, which were complicated and not well arranged.
I decided to keep it anyway. Well, about in a year the battery went out. You must send it back to Polar who will charge you $100! AND it takes them about 1 month. Then in about 1 year it happened again. this time, I took it to a watch shop. Unfortunately, then it only lasted about 3 more months!
So I am on the hunt for a new heart rate monitor and thought I should warn potential buyers - Avoid Polar in general and this one specifically.
Great For Speed Runners...
The RS300x SD is accurate and a great aid to my training. Once properly calibrated, the foot pod provides accurate pace read back to help me work on my speed and pace. Keep in mind that you should recalibrate the foot pod when the environment and/or factors change such as new shoes or running on a track versus a dirt trail. I also own a GPS training watch and if you are a runner more concerned with speed and accurate readings for pacing, this watch is perfect. For long distance jogs, I use my GPS watch. GPS watches take more time to determine the pace and the delay may be too long to be useful. The foot pod gives instant pace and speed readings. At first, the user interface may seem a little unfriendly but I found it to be quite easy after a couple minutes of playing with the watch. It may be a good idea to tuck in your shoelaces because the lace hitting against the foot pod while running may get annoying after awhile. The heart beat sensor was surprisingly comfortable. I am happy...
