Hi guys,

I am going to buy one of the two. I like the suunto much more (I am looking at T3). The Polar are fitness computers which u can wear for sport, but look plastickie and ugly for more everyday use. The T3 however does look more decent, and i could wear it other than only at times of exercise.

I trust Suunto because I know in diving computers they are great, but my doubt is that all the fitness "pros" who I have talked to say "everyone uses Polar, that's for a reason". No actual rational defense for Polar, but I want to be sure before buying. So:

1) Is the suunto's HR information as reliable as Polar?
2) Can I customize the information about my personal profile for Kcal calculations to be accurate in the suunto as much as in the Polar?
3) Is there any other real difference between a T3 and a similar price Polar I should be aware of?

thanks!
