Polar RC3 GPS HR Bike Training Watch

The Polar RC3 GPS HR Training Watch re-writes the training and route-finding manual for runners, cyclists and other recreational sport enthusiasts with this superb combined GPS and training feedback wrist-top computer.

This heart-rate (HR) version means you have just about the complete activity partner in an amazingly slim and light watch that even features a breathable strap to prove how user-friendly the Polar RC3 really is.

The Polar RC3 GPS listens to your body and tracks your speed, altitude, distance and route in one very neat and very impressive unit.

The RC3 GPS is only big where it counts, with its superbly informative digital display that can not only be customised to your exact preferences but can show three very clear rows of training data and will even show a dozen words of fully readable motivational message.

The Polar RC3 GPS HR Training Watch combines state-of-the-art GPS technology with Smart Coaching, a unique multi-faceted training guidance resource.

The RC3 GPS HR offers an array of easy-to-use heart rate-based features including Sports Profile, where you can pre-select a sport and then monitor your intensity level specific to the demands of that activity, and Training Benefit where instant intuitive feedback is given straight after your exercise session.

The GPS facility includes the Polar Back to Start GPS feature that can lead you back to your starting point via the shortest distance.

In addition, the Polar RC3 GPS HR Training Watch now lets you check out more challenging routes and explore them knowing safe in the knowledge that the touch of a button will give you the route back to where you started from.

Using the latest SiRFstar IV technology, the RC3 has an unrivalled GPS signal for total convenience whilst training and, with a 250 mAH Li-Pol fixed rechargeable battery, it also allows users to train with their Polar RC3 GPS HR Training Watch for up to 12 hours without the need to recharge.

The Polar RC3 GPS HR Training Watch features real-time GPS-based altitude information, allowing you to see current altitude as well as total ascent and descent.
