Polar FT60 Works great, on land and in water. Helps motivate you

Polar FT60 Works great, on land and in water. Helps motivate you
I spent probably a month researching heart rate monitors. I was looking for all-in-one watch that would have GPS, barometer, thermometer, compass AND a heart rate monitor. I came close with Suunto vector but it does not tell you calories burnt, avg and max heart rate so I kept looking and ultimately realized I can't have it all.

The reason I went with FT60 was a)I have had a polar before and it worked great b)compared to others it had the best reviews and c)I wanted something that could track my historic data and maybe even help me set goals along the way with being a virtual coach to some degree.

I have had the watch for 3 weeks now and still am loving it. I find the menus easy to navigate, it looks great, and I can use it both in the pool as well as for all other workouts.
