In the commercial battle for the first place in terms of heart rate monitor manufacturers Suunto has accelerated the pace and sprints for the lead. The Finnish brand Suunto has updated the design of the range of heart rate monitors, with a more attractive and modern design, far from the more archaic designs of other brands. Now the beautiful and elegant is not incompatible with the best performance.

It is actually a facelift. Suunto 's Tc range is history and the Td range surge.

The Suunto T6d Black Gold heart rate monitor is designed for the most dedicated amateur and professional athletes. It measures the interval between heartbeats and their variations to generate seven different body parameters. Suunto t6d shows many of these measurement results directly on the display: Training Effect, the aerobic benefit of a workout or training session on a scale of 1 to 5, EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption) and calories burned. The user can also freely customize the display and decide which data is most needed for the current workout. With the help of optional sport-specific PODs: Foot POD, Bike POD, GPS POD and Cadence POD, the user can expand their heart rate equipment as their needs evolve.

It comes with the Suunto Dual Comfort Belt, making the t-series the ultimate multi-discipline solution. The Dual Comfort Belt is compatible with most gym cardio equipment, the Suunto Fitness Solution group exercise solution and all Suunto heart rate monitors.
