So....
I'm debating between the F4 and F6. The ten dollar difference isn't really that big of a deal to me.

But, I do want a HR monitor I can wear in the pool. Is there a HR monitor that I can not wear in the pool? (I'm afraid of wearing my current one in, because I've changed the battery and the seal has been broken.)

Any advice? Thanks in advance you guys!

I've got the F6 and am happy with it. I've worn it in the water before changing the watch battery. My local jeweler told me he could change the battery but he wouldn't guarantee water-proofing afterwards. Does the F4 come with a coded strap? That could be an issue if you ride in close proximity to others with monitors.

If you can hold out, Polar is usually at WSSC and they offer a decent discount (at least they used to).

That was my other thought, if I should/should not wait until Miami... hmmmm

Thanks your help Pink!!

Contact Joy.. she is a Polar dealer and can get you a good rate.. I got the Polar 6 from her back in later Nov. WORKS wonders around the other three HRM's I have.

I just got the F6, it's still in the box! I'll let you know how it's going.
