User Reviews about Timex Ironman Men's Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch - Black Blue - Full Size
After five years my Polar HRM was spent, the buttons fell off the watch sides from overuse and the chest strap battery said farewell. After looking high, low and everywhere in between I came across this model and bought.
Past workout date storage is a great thing, too many times I would forget to download the info and lose it once I started a new workout.
The Interval timer makes the Galloway run/walk marathon training seamless.
The only thing I don't receive from this unit that I got from Polar is the % of calories as fat-I can live without it.
Yes as others have stated in their reviews there is a learning curve, well isn't life?
In summation, its a good choice- buy. -- Ex Polar User
I researched several different watches before finally choosing this one. I liked the features, price and reviews. Previously, I had only used heart rate monitoring during my workouts on an elliptical machine. I thought it would be nice to have heart rate information while running. It was a great decision. I find that I run harder than I used to because the watch keeps me honest. I love that it saves the last 10 workouts; it allows me to easily compare workouts and try to improve my statistics. I even use it when working out on a treadmill or elliptical because I can keep my statistics in one place. The display is great; large and easy to read. It gives you choices on display layout that are handy. It only took a couple of minutes to setup and the steps were easy. I haven't had any issues with the HRM function. (I do wet my t-shirt underneath the sensor to ensure good readings.) All in all a great watch! -- Great watch!
I finally decided I needed to get back into shape. My wife surprised me with this fine item. Took some time to get used to it, especially since I am coming from a regular watch that I've used for years.
My only real grip with the watch is that the big blue button at the bottom of the face sticks out too far. I used to wear my watch so the face was on the inside of my wrist. However, that always caused the time zone to change to my 2nd time zone. I use 2 time zones, due to being in the military. I found the watch beeping at me and realized that I was constantly changing the time zone.
I now wear the watch face up, but I still have the same issue occasionally.
Otherwise, it's a great product, once you get learned with it. -- Great Digi-Trainer
This watch is excellent and easy to use but not as effective without the computer link and the software that comes with it. I ended up purchasing the Timex data xchager after I purchased the watch so my recommendation is buy the package together as it is much less expensive that way. The watch is attractive, the buttons easy to read and use, the software and program are excellent. I have used it in all of my workouts since I purchased it helps me to maintain the optimal training zone and track my workouts. I have a PC, so no comment on the compatability with Mac software. Read the reviews of the package together to fully assess the product. I am very pleased thus far. -- Good Training Tool - Need the Computer Link & Program
