Polar Pacer Pro: everything I need as a fanatic rider
- Train focused
- With music control
- Easy in use
- No touchscreen
With the Polar Pacer Pro on my arm, I have all the functions I need while running and I train in a targeted manner. This sports watch is really suitable for sports, not as an extension of my smartphone.
Measure your fitness Through a VO2 max measurement I gain insight into my current condition. I could do this running or walking. I opted for a measurement via a walking test, because I am not a fanatic runner. It turned out that I definitely need to start training again! I really like that the watch also monitors your health at night. This gave me insight into my sleep and how I can improve it. Very handy as I can never get out of bed.
Training for endurance During exercise you can see in which heart rate zone you are training. That way I know whether I'm not running excessively fast, or whether I need to take it up a notch. Very handy since I want to run a 5 km race. I see my score via the Running Index, which indicates whether I am making progress. The watch also indicates whether I have overloaded myself and what the effort of my muscles has required. The better my condition gets, the more my body can handle. So you can very well keep an eye on your progress
Few smart functions I like that the Polar Pacer Pro is nice and straightforward. The watch offers me exactly what I need to exercise, no more, no less. This means I don't have to scroll far in the menus. I do regret that I cannot answer my messages via this watch. That seems pretty handy if I don't have time to grab my smartphone while exercising. Also, I still have to take my cell phone with me if I want to listen to music while exercising.
design I notice that the watch is very light. As a result, it does not get in the way during exercise. I had to get used to the operation with buttons. Many smartwatches nowadays have a touchscreen, but not this watch. It does have a reason, namely that you can't just click on things while exercising. Also, the interface is very simple, I can't really personalize the watch in terms of look.

Price / quality very good purchase
- Light, suitable for 'thin wrists'
- Most important functionalities all present (navigation, interval training,...)
- Accurate heart rate measurement on the wrist (no difference with chest strap)
- GPS signal has a hard time in wooded areas (zig zag lines)
After testing the Polar Grit X, I consciously started looking for a lighter watch that still had all the functionalities. As a woman with thin wrists, the Polar Grit is really too heavy (in terms of feel and look). The Pacer Pro has all the functionalities that you effectively use as a runner and an extremely accurate heart rate measurement (like all Polars). The only drawback is that Polar does a little less well in terms of GPS; in wooded area, it looks like you had been drinking while walking (zig zag lines). Algorithms in the Polar app and Strava app differ with regard to correction, so difficult to determine what is correct. However, for me running in the right heart rate zones was more important than whether it was 10km or 10.1km.
The interchangeable straps make it easier on the one hand to assemble smaller straps for narrow wrists, and on the other hand to purchase more 'everyday wearable' straps to wear, for example, at work/party/.... A slightly finer finish (eg chrome band around the case) would have disguised the sporty functionality a bit better in everyday life and made it less 'clunky', although already very elegantly built.
