Pros and cons

You can get insight into your fitness with the VO2 max reading, which measures the maximum oxygen intake in your blood.

This Polar is compatible with Strava for extensive analyses and the possibility to share your performance with friends and followers.
The watch doesn't have built-in music storage, so you have to take your smartphone with you if you want to listen to music during your workout.
This watch doesn't have touchscreen, so you have to use the buttons to navigate through the sports watch.

Description

The Polar Pacer Pro Gold is a GPS watch for running enthusiasts. This watch measures your running performances accurately. Thanks to the built-in GPS, you can leave your smartphone at home and still keep track of your routes. In Komoot, you plan your own running routes in advance, and you get a turn-by-turn route navigation. This way, you know exactly which way to go while you run. Via the walking test, you can get an insight into your fitness. The watch measures this via the VO2 max function. The Performance Test allows you to keep track of your performance. The built-in barometer registers the number of descends and ascends while you run. Don't take off your watch in the evening, because it measures the recovery of your body while you sleep. You don't have to charge the Polar often, because it lasts 7 days with average use.

This watch is recommended for a wrist circumference of 17 to 19cm.

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.

Nice running watch with good options and analyses

Nice running watch, very light
Lots of options and good analyzes of rest and activity
The battery lasts a long time, but I only use it for heart rate at night and running, not as a smartwatch
Wearing location, you are apparently not allowed to wear it directly behind your wrist joint for a better heart rate measurement, that is a little less comfortable.

Completely meets the description and expectations
