No more Polar HRMs for me!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
The last Polar HRM I had died and I assumed it was the battery. Nope the whole thing died. So, I decided to get a Timex this time. I liked that the watch battery has a long life and you can change it yourself, vs mail it back to Polar. Also, the chest strap takes a AAA battery!! You don’t need to mail it anywhere!
The use of this HRM is a little tricky. You HAVE to use the CHRONO feature or all you get is HR, no calories, etc. Now that I figured that out, I love this HRM. It gets a signal much faster than the Polar, and it seems accurate. I love the zone feature and the recovery feature that keeps track of how much your HR drops in the 1 or 2 minutes after you stop your workout.
This HRM is SO worth the money – equal in features to HRMs that cost hundreds more. I am very satisfied with this purchase!
great monitor

After 3 different transmitters then a complete new set I received one that worked. Great customer service but quality control is lacking. So after purchasing it I finally got to use it a month later.
Works great. I like the calories burned feature. This is my first heart rate monitor so I can’t compare it to another one. Fairly simple to set up and get running. Info on how to calculate your max heart rate is in the manual and some tidbits on zone training. As with any electronic device with minimal buttons there is a learning curve for navigating the various features.
The reset button inside the transmitter is not illustrated very well. I’m not sure I ever reset it correctly, of course it was a bad unit anyway!
