GPS-Enabled Sports Watches

Polar's Smart Sports Watches Track Fitness Progress and More

The Polar M600 is a smart sports watch that connects consumers to everything they need to get the most out of each workout.

In addition to tracking heart rate, calories burned and physical progress, the devices monitor sleep so that consumers can get a better idea of what they're resting patterns are like so that they can take steps in improving their overall health. The smart sports watches are especially great for those fond of outdoor exercises, as the Polar M600 is equipped with an incredibly accurate integrated GPS system that allows them to see their distance, route and speed.

The device's 'Smart Coaching' feature offers an 'Activity Guide' that shows how active its wearer has been all day, a 'Running Index' that shows how one's "running performance is developing" and the option to set up a 'Smart Profile' so that the smart sports watches are specifically matched to each consumer's activities, enabling them o keep tabs on their personal goals more efficiently.
