The short video below shows how the RCX5 works. It's definately worth watching if you're thinking about buying this watch.
The Polar RCX5 Multi Sport GPS Running Watch is a triathletes dream watch. The G5 sensor gives GPS based speed and
distance data and it also allows you to analyse your
route online after your training session.
This fantastic watch even
gives you accurate HRdata in the pool because the strap is able to
communicate with the watch under water using the new Wearlink+ Hybrid transmitter.
The RCX5 uses Polar's
advanced ZoneOptimizer technology to adjust your Heartrate zones
according to your current physiological condition. This will allow you
to work at exactly the right intensity to ensure that you get the
optimum benefit from you training session.
The watch has a sleek design
which not only looks great but is far less bulky thanmost other watches
of this type. It will slip under your wetsuit sleeve withoutany
difficulty.

The average battery life on a RCX5 is 11 Months based on the average
usage of 1hr/day 7 days a week. Using GPS, Footpod, or cycling
attachments may cause the battery to expire faster. We recommend buying
spare batteries with your watch to save paying postage on them at a
later date.
