There are two pictures here but only one is of the "Black Polished" T3c. The second picture is of the "Red Arrow" T3c. I've been looking at Suunto Heart Rate monitors on this site all day and I can't believe how many INCORRECT images are displayed. Makes me wonder what I will actually receive when I place my order. I wish Amazon would clean this up and make it less confusing.
As for the product itself I havn't bought one yet. I hope to do so this weekend. I'm leaning towards the t4c model. I've used a Polar F6 for three/four years now I hope the T4c/T3c are as good or better. I like the fact that the batteries are user replaceable unlike the Polar F6. However, my Polar came with an analog chest strap that works with most gym cardio equipment where I do most of my workouts. Only the T1 and T1c come with an analog chest strap. The T3c/T4c come with a digital Ant strap that although eliminates interference from other peoples chest straps will not work with gym cardio equipment (i think). Suunto sells a dual chest strap that emits both analog and digital signals to solve this problem but it doesn't come standard with the watch. You'll end up spending between $59 and $89 more for that strap. Makes me wonder if I really need the added Training Effect and Coach Features in the T3c/T4c at the expense of the ability to interface with ellipticals, treadmills, steppers and other equipment found at most fitness clubs. Hope this info helps those like myself trying to find a new or replacement heart rate monitor.Get more detail about Suunto T3c Heart Rate Monitor and Fitness Trainer Watch (Deep Green).
