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 Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function. The watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet)--suitable for swimming but not for diving. All Timex heart rate monitor sensors have batteries that can be replaced by consumers without requiring them to be returned to the manufacturer. | | | |

Awesome product Aug 05, 2008 This is the first heart rate monitor that I have used. So I really have nothing to compare it to. But it works exceptionally well for my purposes. I am traing to run in 2 x 1/2 marathons and 1 marathon. Being able to monitor my fitness has helped me acheive outstanding results. If you are looking for easy use and lightweight this is the one.
Have fun!
Great watch...so-so HRM Jun 06, 2008 I love the watch... I wear it everyday and I think the features, the comfort, and the style are all exceptional.
The HRM function makes me sad... I really wanted this to work better to be able to use to train with. Problem is, that the wireless connection "drops" too frequently and if you don't notice it and reset it, you lose that data.. so it really doesn't work for it's intended purpose.
I too have replaced the transmitter battery, but it didn't help.
Love the watch.... but it is just not a reliable HRM....
If you need a watch by a watch... if you need a reliable HRM look elsewhere.
Started out as a good watch, but keep it out of the water Mar 01, 2008 One would think that a watch for an Ironman would function reasonably well in water. After just two months, the watch had condensation inside, which made it difficult to read, then finally stopped working altogther. I would recommend this watch for use on dry land only.
Feature set exceeds the price point. Feb 09, 2008 Just got the watch, so these are initial impressions, not a test of long-term durability. I had a Nike Triax C5 which was $90+ and it didn't have 25% of the features that this watch has. Two time zones, night mode, chrono, timer, recover, and review modes are all useful. The review for a workout includes time in zone, avg hr, peak hr, min hr, calories burned, and lap times. And there are several different display modes for each mode. I'm extremely impressed with the ergonomics overall. The watch itself is not extremely comfortable right out of the box, but I think it will get better as it forms to my wrist, like most. The signal is strong and I haven't lost a connection or had interference issues. The watch seems like it blocks out other signals once it is connected. Overall, I would definitely recommend this watch for the price, I don't know of a better value.

So Far So Good Jan 29, 2008 I have only had this heart rate monitor for 3 weeks but it has worked like a charm. This is my first heart rate monitor and I have been using it for running and spinning 4 times a week. When I first used the heart rate monitor, it was not receiving the heart rate signal. I said to myself, "Oh no, what kind of piece of junk did I get?". The manual for the watch suggested adding moisture to the chest transmitter contact. However, the manual for the chest transmitter did not indicate where the contact was, so I assumed that it was directly behind the case that contains the electronics. Adding moisture to the back of the case did not do anything. I finally realized that the contacts are on both sides of case along the strap. They are rubberized with ridges going along the strap. Adding water to both contacts did the trick. The signal is picked up within a second or two.
Compared to the Polar monitors, the Timex ones, IMO, are more stylish, function packed and better value. Plus the battery is user replaceable.
We will see how it does on the long haul.
