Amazon.com Product Description
Log every mile and every minute with FR60, a sleek fitness watch plus workout tool that tracks your time, heart rate and calories burned. When bundled with the wireless foot pod (not included), FR60 also tracks speed and distance, indoors or out. Use FR60's training tools to get the most out of your workout. Then, FR60 wirelessly sends your workout data to your computer for later analysis.  Garmin Forerunner 60 (Men's Red)
|  Flexible digital heart rate monitor provides instant feedback about how hard you're working. |  Once you've logged the miles, FR60 automatically transfers data to your PC or Mac, wirelessly when in range. | Train Indoors or Out
In the gym or on the road, FR60 tracks all your workout data, including time, heart rate, calories burned, lap times and averages, and more. FR60 boasts advanced training tools, such as training alarms and Virtual Partner, which lets you race against a virtual training partner to improve your performance. At the heart of its success is FR60's wireless ANT+ technology, which allows it to connect to other ANT+ compatible devices, like the included heart rate monitor, optional foot pod (not included), or even ANT+ compatible fitness equipment. Go for Distance
With the ANT+ seamless wireless link, FR60 connects to the optional wireless foot pod (not included), which tracks your distance and speed effortlessly, both indoors and out. Using advanced accelerometer technology, the foot pod (not included) collects and sends precise data about your movements, gathering distance and speed data that is 98 percent accurate, right out of the box. Listen to Your Heart
FR60 also connects wirelessly to a lightweight, flexible digital heart rate monitor, providing instant feedback about how hard you're working. FR60 continuously tracks heart beats per minute and displays your heart rate zone, so you can monitor and improve your fitness level. | 
Also available in Men's Black | Cross-Train
When paired with an optional speed/cadence sensor, FR60 tracks the speed and distance of your cycling workouts. The wireless speed/cadence sensor attaches securely to your bike and measures your pedaling cadence and wheel speed as you ride. You can even use it to train indoors because the sensor attaches to your rear wheel. Sync and Share
Once you've logged the miles, FR60 automatically transfers data to your PC or Mac, wirelessly when in range. No cables, no hookups. The data's just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize, and share through the Garmin Connect online community. Pick Your Form Factor
Males and females may train alike, but they have different preferences when it comes to watch styling. So, Garmin offers a men’s and women’s version of FR60 that differs only in size and color options. The men’s model, which weighs 1.6 ounces, comes in black or red on black (shown here, 010-00743-21). The women’s model, at 1.4 ounces, comes in black or lilac. What's in the Box
FR60, heart rate monitor, USB ANT Stick, quick start manual, and owners manual on disk

 cool watch, but a software nightmare July 21, 2010

The FR60 was promoted as a simpler, easier-to-use option than competitor Polar.
Well, the watch is simpler and easier to use than my Polar watch, but the software you need in order to save and transfer your workouts - a big selling point of this model - is a complete nightmare. If it works for you, great. But if it doesn't, you're all on your own.
I installed everything exactly according to Garmin's instructions. I even got to the point of connecting my watch with the Ant Agent software - no problem. But then it won't transfer any data. It says 'transfer failed' over and over and over again.
I even tried starting from scratch on a different computer, following the instructions even more carefully than before. Same result.
Response from Garmin support? NONE.
 Excellent! July 20, 2010

This HRM works perfect! It really helps keep me motivated and in the right zone. I also find myself going longer to reach higher calorie burn numbers. Product was received as advertised and very fast shipping.

Great watch, great HRM. Simple to use out of the box, but has some extra functionality beyond its function as a HRM and workout log that can be explored. Works perfectly with Mac which is good for me and the ANT stick is very slick and makes the process of uploading workouts automatic. Good training log online at the Garmin website and great customer service.
I love this product! June 29, 2010

I love the Garmin FR60. The chest strap is very comfortable. The online Garmin Connect feature is really great & easy to use.I love all the reports available. Garmin is very helpful on questions & provide fast feedback. I now also have the foot pod which I love on my runs. I'm sure there are a lot of features that I haven't used yet. It's easy to use & I like the fact that it's ready to go- no calibration. I've played around with it some. It doesn't do mileage on an ellipitical. It will record mileage & calories burned without the chest strap on runs.(I went for a run & didn't realize I had forgotten the chest strap until I was too far away from the house.) I have not tried it swimming. I know it says that it's waterproof but I was still afraid to get in the pool with it. I have used it on my bike but I don't have the accessory for my bike. It still tells heartrate & calories but not distance. I like the fact that it's not bulky on my arm. It really looks like a sports watch so I'm comfortable wearing it to the gym or on runs without calling attention to myself.I can't say enough good things about it. I have told everyone I know about how great it is. Really glad I bought it.
Accurate, yet Faulty Construction June 28, 2010

I had the watch for a month and a half and enjoyed using it to track my average pace and heart rate while running or biking. Also used it in the general mode when doing other activities. Very easy to use, liked the ANT agent for uploading. However, after a month and half the watch band broke where it meets the face (see customer image). Don't know if it is faulty construction or if it is because the stiff band isn't a good fit for a mid size wrist. Either way, customer service contacted me within 6 hours of submitting a repair request. Just wish they could send me the replacement so I am not missing my watch on my runs.
And a pony tail holder works wonders!
