Chest Straps ----- Sark Products let's customer choose transmitter of their choice at no additional cost. Sark Products let's the customer choose the transmitter of their choice at no additional cost. We recommend the Cardiosport because you can easily change the battery and it comes with a lifetime warranty. All transmitters are compatible with all watches except, Polar and Cardiosport transmitters do not work with Acumen watches. You must have a Polar coded transmitter to work with Polar's S510, S710, Xtrainer and Protrainer XT
Changing battery in watch should be done by us or someone who can leak test watch. Simply if the watch is not leak tight corrosion will develop when moisture gets inside.
