 A HRM that does what you need, without unecessary frills Sep 21, 2005
By David Alan Tussey

This Heart Rate Monitor works very well, and does everything 99% of us need. I like the design, the user interface, and the overall operation. For what you get, the price is superb. You can spend hundreds $s more, but you'll get only marginally more performance.

Nice, convenient, functional Mar 06, 2006
By andy_lar
Just some additional comments not mentioned by other reviewers. The strap constitutes one whole unit with the device. This creates a cool look and adds robustness. On the downside, no more changing the strap, but this need is highly unlikely. Also the small additional strap (around the main one - it has some special name, but I don't know it) is conveniently fixed at the free end of the main strap and thus never moves during a workout.
However, be aware that the watch is rather small (though not thin). It looks larger on the image. This is quite fine for ladies or for somewhat skinny guys like me, but might look too small for a "real man".
From the functional side it is worth to mention the presence of both '+' and '-' buttons in any setup or review mode. Indispensable when you need to reduce, let's say, the alarm time by 5 minutes.

Great HR monitor! Feb 07, 2006
By Monica Tory
This is a great HR monitor -- the midsized watch unit is smaller than many competitor's models, making it much more comfortable to wear. The software is intuitive. In addition to the standard features you would expect (average HR, minimum HR, time in zone, calorie count for workout), the unit ALSO records peak HR, average heart rate for splits/laps along with split/lap time, and calculates calorie use for all effort levels (vs. some Polar HR monitors which only calculate calorie use at higher activity levels). All at a very affordable price.

 Worked well... when it worked Oct 31, 2006
By B. Baldwin
"drbb"
I bought this monitor in January when I started spinning classes in addition to step aerobics. Worked well and had all the features that I wanted. But then it suddenly stopped working in May. Under warranty I contacted Timex. It took 5 weeks to finally get a new working watch and chest strap. Then the chest strap broke in September in a way that is unfixable. I give up. I'm looking for a Polar.

Very good heart rate monitor and stopwatch Oct 13, 2007
By Christopher Majeske
I have had several heart rate monitors all from Polar. They all worked well but I thought I would try a less expensive brand. This was less than half the price of the Polars. I wasn't looking for every possible feature. I have had top of the line models and I never used all of the features. This one has just enough for me.
This worked right out of the box. The heart rate worked and measured correctly. Set up was very simple. Timex does a good job with the instruction manual. The Polar manuals I find to be overly complicated. Maybe that's why I didn't use all of the features.
This a midsize, which being a guy, I have preferred over the big "man's" models.
My only complaint is that the chest strap is tight. I have it lengthened as much as possible and it is just enough to fit. Very large people would have a problem with this.
I have had this watch for a few months and it works great.
