Title: DON'T BUY A TIMEX HRM!!!
Product review: I purchased this Heart Monitor watch through BestBuy online in August '06. It seemed to function relatively well when I received it (though I suspect this was due to the fact that I was sitting in a chair when I tested the heart monitor function) On beginning intensive use of the heart monitor function in late December '06 and having problems with it, I did some research online and discovered that in general, Timex heart monitors have been extremely unreliable - this has been my experience as well.The heart rate monitor is EXTREMELY UNRELIABLE. Readout registers numbers ranging from in the 40s during heavy exertion (should be somewhere in the 160+ range), up to the max of 240 (my max rate is approximately 190). HRM frequently loses connection with display on watch.Of course thus far in my communication with them BestBuy has invoked their "30-day return policy," and I don't expect much from Timex.
