Basic and difficult to useMarch 9, 2010 Peggy Morgan(Marlton, NJ USA) This heart rate monitor is a pretty bare-bones model, but adequate for basic tasks. I echo what other reviewers have said about the difficulty of setting the watch and entering information. It's not even a little bit intuitive and the manual is, to be kind, worthless. It gets the job done, but only just.
JunkMarch 9, 2010 S. Rose Worked great for about 3 weeks then the chest strap stopped being reliable. It would work fine then just stop in the middle of a workout. Replaced the battery and it still did it. Would turn in for warrantee but would rather just try for something of quality.
Timex v. Polar HRMMarch 8, 2010 Blindpew(sydney, nsw, AU) Very reasonable price & most of the functions of my defunct expensive Polar. It has worked well in cycling, and the session recall is useful. The current time/ HR in session, is not available without a button push. So this means riding no hands, not so good in criteriums. Apart from this, it is a good buy.
Just perfectMarch 8, 2010 Mihail Branescu(FLORIDA) I got this watch since I started running/jogging outside again, and it is awesome. I have to monitor my heart rate for medical reasons, it couldn't be better. Thank you Timex!

Great investmentMarch 6, 2010 J. MCEACHIN(USA) This heart rate monitor was on consumer reports as a best buy and I definitely agree! I have had no problems and am very happy that I bought it. My sister in law bought 4 different heart rate monitors and finally ended with this same one and is very happy. It does need to be wet on the chest strap before starting a workout. It counts calories too! And you can check the status anytime during your workout, you don't have to wait until you're finished like some others do. Highly recommend it!!
