What customers say about Polar FT60 Men’s Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Black with Red Display)?
Great Monitor, hard to see display,
I have mixed feelings about this product right now. The functionality is excellent with this monitor. It does everything as well as or better than my previous two Polar heart Rate Monitors (both F11′s).
My complaint is the red background. If you workout outside it’s great and I’d give this a full 5/5 rating. Unfortunately I work out in group fitness classes and the display is hard to read sometimes. The red background is great in direct light and OK in moderate light. In very low light the light function works great. It’s the “in between” low light conditions that are sometimes difficult to read.
If you workout in moderately low light conditions, get the white background not the red. The display may look nice in the pictures but it’s hard to read without good lighting and the “light” function only works when the space is dark enough. In retrospect I would have preferred to have gone with the regular background for visibility during my workouts though.

|Cant get fixed,
October 2011. Polar never did responded to the BBB’s. The BBB entered comments into the companies file and closed the issue. Polar did send me a replacement watch (black / white) that works but drains the battery every couple months. They did not ask for the red / black watch back (that does not burn up batteries). I really am amazed by the lack of response from Polar. From the times when Polar Service kept sending me back the defective watch (and not fixing it) to no response to formal complaints. I’m still not happy with how they got me to buy other straps / wearlinks when the watch was bad. Buyer Beware. Warranties worthless at Polar.
April 2011. Complaint still in dispute with the new york better business bureau. The bbb contacted me to see if polar had contacted me; Nope. The bbb said polar did not respond to their inquires. Polar did receive the hrm I shipped to them (see march update). They returned it with a paper noting that the hrm is defective. I can not emphasize strongly enough how retarded polar service can be. Beyond stupid, bordering on mean. I believe the next step with the BBB is arbitration. Almost one year since the unit failed without complete resolution.
March 2011. The good: Polar sent a replacement watch, strap and transmitter. For the first time in 6 months I have been able to use it in a workout. To the female that owned it before me: I deleted your data since polar did not. I assume it was used: it was set to female & had some other things set. Anyway, I had a nice workout with it. The bad: polar sent me the black & red watch, I actually purchased the white/black. Can’t read the thing. Illumination does not help at all (I tried it in the dark – it is actually worse). If you are considering a ft60, don’t get this color. Horrible contrast. When we sent in my to swap for this, my wife asked me how many more times we are going to drive to town for this pos (it’s an hour drive one way – out of our way to ups to ship it out). You would think after being in for service twice they would actually look at the watch and send the right thing back to me. I’m going to call (again) and get rid of this red & black; if there is no way in he11 i would ever pay for this, why would they think I would except it in trade for my broke one? God this sucks. How many more times polar? I have not heard back on by complaint on the better business site.
February 2011. Has been into Polar service twice and it is still don’t work (since August 2010). Frustrated dealing with polar service and getting back stuff that still does not work and charged for the service. It needs new battery my ass. Dropped to 1 star. Have filed complaints (BBB / et.al) and will see what happens.
August 2010. Dropped a star due to new failure of the transmitter. Durability is questionable. Are all HRM’s cheap crap or just this one?
I’ve owned my watch seven months. I hardly worked out at first. After replacing my elliptical, I logged over 200 hours, averaging 4-7 hours per week. I had to replace the batteries in the watch and strap after a few weeks (bad batteries). Walmart carries the batteries. Be careful when replacing the battery in the strap: the plastic is extremely mailable, easily damaged and provides poor tool traction. Bad design issue number 1. Be careful in replacing the battery on the watch, the design is so you can easily break something when replacing the battery. The strap broke soon after the battery replacement. The fabric folds over and provides a loop to secure the belt on your chest. The stitching to hold this was done improperly and the fabric tore at the stitching. Bad design issue number 2. I contacted Polar about the strap and explained what happened they shipped me a replacement strap. Actually nice customer service. I lost a week of workout in this and it bothered me so much that I ordered a backup strap.
The chest strap is comfortable. It does not distract me from my workout or slip. The watch is too small to fit comfortable on my wrist. I do not have this problem with watches and do not know what they were thinking. Big watch, relatively small strap. Bad design issue number 3. I place the watch on the elliptical rail and don’t usually wear it.
I have seen complaints about the watch not picking up heartbeat and have had a couple of issues (all solved). What I have learned to do to get a reliable connection is to use a bit of hand-gel on my chest and wet the strap where the pickup connections are. I also had to disable my elliptical’s HRM functions because of some issue where it would prevent this watch to work with the wearlink.
The watch is ugly. I don’t know who’s idea it was to use those electronic symbols but they deserve to be slapped. It’s a $200 HRM and looks stupid. The LCD display looks cheap. I understand about the power load but feel that Polar could do a better job. I had a time when power went out at night…
