This is my first heart rate monitor and I've been very impressed with it. Pretty easy to set up and get going. Once you've put basic personal information in (age, height, weight) you are pretty much up and running. Display is very flexible and shows heart rate either in BPM or as a % of max. It can calculate training zones for you with its "own zone" functionality or you can choose to define your own upper and lower limits. Either way, when you are training outside the zone the watch lets you know.
Alongside all this goodness, it has the usual stopwatch with laptimes, back light etc. The strap seems fairly durable and the transmitter belt works well with equipment in gyms. When you've finished working out it tells you the workout duration, time in your heart rate zone, calories burnt and % of those that came from fat. I've been using mine with a book called Slow Burn by Stu Mittleman and have been very impressed by both.

Colour Name:Black
I did not think that such a small think would have such a big impact on my workouts, but the change has been phenominal. I suffer from "over thinking" often when I am running my brain kicks in and whines about how I am tired should stop, you can't go on etc, with the HRM i can visually see just how hard I'm working if I need to increase or decrease the intensity, basically the little voice has been silenced and I now get on with good quality workouts.
The chest belt is comfortable, I don't even notice it but as a girl it does tend to just sit under my bra so I don't realise its there.
The watch is not unpleasent I even wear it by itself as a watch when I am going out, the strap is sturdy the band is comfortable and its small enough to be quite normal even on a lady.
Over all I think a HRM is probably one of the best exersize tools somebody could purchase, I didn't want something that required a degree in rocket science and I didnt want something that was so simple it broke straight off. This watch comes comfortably in the middle, clear detailed useful information you need at that moment, I strongly recomend this product.

Colour Name:Black
bought this as a fathers day pressie, its been great so far, used on every run and a great way to monitor fitness/time/speed/heartrate. i was unsure which to buy as there are so many on offer but if you are looking for a heart rate monitor and watch for a runner this is the one.

Does exactly what it says
Good fast delivery and good item - helping me train better and smarter. I wear the watch quite a bit, even though it isnt very feminine.
