The black V800 Fitness Watch from Polar allows you to tell time, tracks your position with GPS, and monitors your training sessions or daily activity. Its easy to read backlit screen can provide fitness-related feedback to help you create a training program based on your person goals as well as guide that training. The V800 supports triathlon training with transition times and can be customized for training in 20 different sports. The built-in GPS training computer provides speed and distance data, as well as route information at the Polar Personal Trainer website. The V800 is compatible with the separately available Polar H7 Heart Rate Sensor (sold separately) that expands the V800's capabilities.
Using the included USB connection to plug the V800 into your internet-connected computer, you can gain access to the Polar Personal Trainer website, which allows you to keep a record of your workouts, track progress, access GPS information, and plot future workout programs. You can also enter your data into the site manually.
