4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars Great watch/HR monitor, January 21, 2010 I did some research prior to purchasing this HR monitor/watch. I have to say I am very pleased with it. I actually wanted one that measured distance, also, but they all seem to be too large for my wrist. This watch is fine and I honestly have a very small wrist. I like the features and especially the ability to review all of the info from each workout. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Great HRM!, February 15, 2010 I both agree and disagree with some of the reviews for this product. Granted, I have only had it a week, so I can't speak about durability/quality. I also haven't used the interval or recovery modes (and may never).
First, it is comfortable! I forget that I am even wearing the chest strap and my wrist is light as air. I am a large framed female with a normal BMI and as another reviewer stated, I can wear it under my sports bra. It is also a nice looking watch. The HRM seems very accurate and that part wasn't difficult to set up if you know your numbers. Although I have to say, plan to spend a little time with the manual. While somewhat intuitive, you still need to familiarize yourself with the functions of the buttons in each mode. The only down side is the calorie counter. I don't know how these devices usually calculate this, but this one, as well the rest, always give reading higher than what is actual. But that is not a flaw of this HRM, but of all of them in general.
This is a great product! The only way they could make it better is to design it to be as accurate without needing the chest strap. Then I would wear it all the time!

I am a 6 ft 150 thin runner who got this size and it does not overwhelm my arm. The digits present well and the HRM feature works perfectly with a good connection. I don't even notice wearing the strap and the readings are pretty precise/clear, once you figure out how to click through the various reviews, recovery, etc features. It was a very nice Xmas gift from my wife and I can already see a few benefits or maybe just placebo benefits to how I am putting in the mileage now.
