An Amazing Training Companion
The Polar 625X Running Computer is simply Awesome. I bough this watch about a two years ago and I love it.

Once you star using it, you will be so hooked-up to all the useful information you receive during your running, walking, or any kind of training or workout that you embrace, that will never go out again without it.

Its the perfect complement to your desire to get in shape, improve your health or competitive level.

The watch is easy to use, especially if you have owned a Polar Heart Rate Monitor before. This model comes with the Polar food pod (a small device that you install in your shoe laces to measure distance and speed), the transmitter (this is the device with the chest strap), and a computer software that allows you to view, in a graphic representation, important information for each workout (Heart Rate, Pace, Distance, Speed, Temperature, and Elevation).

As soon as you star training and exercising with this magnificent watch, you feel as if you have a coach or a training partner with you.

If you are an athlete, an enthusiastic runner, a hobbyist, or just conscious about your shape and health, you will definitely love this watch. I do. I have owned different HRM from Polar, and without any doubt this is the very best for running.

This powerful running computer enables you to record personal performance, running and cycling data plus training conditions like altitude or temperature, then analyze your performance when you download via Infrared technology directly to your PC using the included Polar Precision Performance (PPP) 4.0 software. You'll get total feedback on your training sessions by reviewing a variety of graphical summaries, trends and analysis on the computer. I really love the software, I believe the Polar Precision Performance (PPP) 4.0 software alone is well worth the price of this set.

Train and rest in the right balance. The OwnOptimizer test tells you whether you have recovered enough for your next training session. Based on the test, you are provided with a nice-scale description of your personal training status.

The OwnCal feature shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. It also allows you to set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure. The OwnIndex feature will determine your fitness level, track your improvements, and provide motivation. Polar's OwnCode technology blocks unwanted signals from other heart rate monitors, ensuring disturbance-free transmission of your heart rate data.

Additionally you could add the bike mount (it's really inexpensive, I got it for about 6 US$), an accessory that will allow you to take advantage of s625x running computer functionality when training in your bike. You install the bike mount on the handlebar and you are ready to wrap your watch around the bike mount. Now you will be able to follow your heart rate as you go on the road with your bike. The s625x offers the ability to enter two different wheel sizes, enabling you to train on two different bikes.

Prepare yourself to atart getting the best results from your training.

Excellent!
I used to have a Polar HRM many years ago, which was a cheaper one and not so useful. I soon stopped using that after only a couple of uses.

Now that I've started running seriously again, I decided to take up on a HRM with speed/distance measuring capability. This Polar S625x is absolutely wonderful...ever wondered how many miles you've exactly covered? Or wondered what your speed is in case you need to slow down or speed up before the finish of a run/race? Well this is the answer to your problems.

Extremely user-friendly, with a ton of different options too. If you're considering buying a HRM which can measure speed and distance too, you can't go wrong with the S625x!

Awkward Battery Replacement
It is not possible to replace the battery yourself or in a general high st jewellers, it has to be sent away to a specialist
