is this the right one for a polar watch? I bought the wrong one before.

Not all watches use the same battery; even watches from the same manufacturer may use different batteries. Always go by what your manufacturer recommends for your product. Consult your manual or look at your old battery. In some cases, it may say what battery you need on the backside or in the battery compartment of the watch.

I happen to have a Polar watch that takes this size but I can't say if that will be true for your Polar watch.

I have a Polar F1. It uses a CR 2025. I doubt that the 2032 would fit, as it is slightly thicker. There did not seem to be any allowance in the little spring clip that holds it place for a thicker battery. The price for 5 of either the 2025 or the 2032 is about the same on Amazon. What's more troubling is getting the back of the watch off. The F1 uses four really tiny star driven screws. I had to buy a jeweler's set to get one small enough.

With this model which is the newest, it's very easy! You just unscrew the back and put it in with the old model you had to have Polar replace it or a watch repair shop.

no idea; however as I understand it it is supposed to work with Polar watches, which is how I use mine.

Use the model number on the Polar, most likely that is a brand that has a company produce using the Polar Name. If it is a quality Cooler the threads are standard, just be sure you order by MALE or FEMALE

no - this is not the same! - if you want one that will work with your nike wrist gadget or 5th gen nano you have to make sure the band is double branded as both polar and nike.

It is an ant+ chest strap so if the watch is ant+ compatible then it should.

Sorry. I have the old style square Nanoipod & it's perfect for that. I don't know the shape of smart watches.

Read the responses. But I must add that I use the clip on the One and attach to my watch. It may look "strange" but most that comment say, " Cool, never thought of that". Note that I have a Velcro wristband. Not sure if it work on traditional bands.

I think it won't be a problem but, I'm not 100% sure. Go to the Polar website and check that detail

I am not sure. I have had it for about eight months and haven't needed to yet. I did have a similar polar model prior to this one and it was easy to replace.

I haven't had that problem at all. If anything, it is a bit inaccurate in the beginning of a run while my heart rate is just kicking in. After a few minutes at most, mine works well - as accurate as my Polar without the irritating strap.

I'm not familiar with that specific watch. It does get small enough to open my wife's watches.

Just curious, I'm thinking of getting the 305, but I already have a Polar HRM... Did you say that your Polar strap works with your 305? If so, that'd be nice not to have to purchase a second strap.

Don't know, never tried the WIND. The sensor that came with this device is crap. IMO, Polar is a bad product when it comes to batteries and convenient of recharging. You'd have to re-buy the entire sensor if battery runs out. You should be switching to Garmin anyways.

I have a Timex Ironman (Trashman would be a better moniker for this $90 disappointment!) that has NEVER given me reliable performance and has basically just quit after 17 months of unreliable service. I'm reading enough negative reviews on the Polar F11, which had otherwise sounded promising, to dismiss risking money on that product as well! While I have little or no use for GPS, the Garmin 305 is starting to sound to me like the accurate, reliable heart rate monitor I'm looking for based on further reading!

Not sure. But I can tell you I would DEFINiTELY NOT recommend this watch to ANYONE. This is my third Garmin, and the other two worked fine - this model has some major defects that I don't think Garmin wants to acknowledge. I"m looking at Polar or Nike or anything else but Garmin for my next GPS.

Agree with Sean. You would only be able to use the heart rate monitor functions of this watch. Polar sells a version of this watch with GPS accessory instead of foot pod but I have not heard good things about it. Polar's newer GPS devices are much more useful but not compatible with this watch. Only buy the foot pod if you plan on running only.
