Polar AW200 Activity Watch

The Polar AW-series activity watches are designed for active walkers, recreational hikers and outdoor lifestyle minded people whose objective is overall well being and staying fit. The Polar activity watches are created for outdoor recreation -- not for structured activity as with the Polar heart rate monitors.

The Polar AW200 activity watch contains innovative accelerometer technology -- When walking or running, the body motion produces impulses, which the sensor is sensing. The faster you are moving, the more impulses are produced.

The sensor senses the impulses only if the body movement is constant and strong enough. (Must be walking for 10 sec before it starts.)
