Solid HR Monitor
I have been using this HR monitor for about 11 months, and it's been fairly reliable; however, I did need to replace the chest strap device through Timex. The replacement has been working ever since. Of the three HR monitors I've had, this is...

Overall, very good
Overall, I am pleased with this. It works much better in wooded areas than the previous generation and is generally very accurate for distance, average speed/pace. The only complaint I have is that it is uncomfortable to wear on my thin wrists....

Works Well - Here's An Additional Tip
Everything has worked as expected on this watch. I'm writing the review mainly because there were some comments about the watch losing the heart rate sensor signal from time to time, and I think I may have the answer on how to avoid that.

doesn't work
The watch works but the HRM function stopped working and it was not the battery. It only worked for 3-4 days, then nothing. Don't buy this product!

Reliable heart rate monitor
I was interested in a simple watch with basic features to monitor heart rate and times. The Ironman is compact and works flawlessly with the heart monitor strap. I am extremely pleased with this product.

Product quality issues but nothing major.
I've owned my monitor for one year. I don't know how I ever trained without one. That said, my monitor has also had some issues. The ring to hold the band in place became brittle and cracked/broke and came off several months ago. I now use a...

Good watch, terrible heart rate monitor
As a runner I have to say that the Timex Ironman Watch was a real disappointment. This product is totally overrated (I really don't know how they got the authorization to put the Ironman logo on it, since it does not even work correctly under easy...

Great watch, mediocre heart sensor..
I love the watch and sensor, when it worked. I had to replace the battery after only one use. Put in a fresh battery and got to use it for one work out. Then it just stopped transmitting. Major disappointment because I loved the set up. This is...

Very good heart rate monitor and stopwatch
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...

No problems
I train for triathlons with the watch and heart rate monitor. I've replaced the battery in the chest strap with no problems (it's so easy to open the case I used a key). Both the watch band and the chest strap are perfect after hundreds of hours...
