Combining stylish looks with heart rate monitoring features, this larger Timex Personal Heart Rate Monitor watch (model T5G971) can be worn by both men and women. It features a chest strap heart rate monitor, easily accessible function buttons, durable resin case, and comfortable resin strap with a stylish tapered profile. For integrating heart rate monitoring into your training, this watch enables you to continuously track your heart rate during exercise as well as pre-set target heart rate zones with alarms that notify you when you are out of the zone. It also offers an automatic activity timer and a workout review that recalls activity time and average/peak heart rates. This streamlined watch also has a month/day/date display with 12/24-hour time. The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The watch is water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet), which protects it from rain and water splashes. All Timex heart rate monitor sensors have batteries that can be replaced by consumers without requiring them to be returned to the manufacturer.

Customer Reviews
Basic and difficult to use -- 2010-03-09
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.
Junk -- 2010-03-09
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 HRM -- 2010-03-08
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 perfect -- 2010-03-08
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 investment -- 2010-03-06
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!!
