Product Description Accept no imitations or limitations. There is only one Timex IRONMAN* Triathlon. Stylish enough for the weekend warrior, technical enough for the extreme athlete. Don't swim, bike, run, jump, climb, throw, or kick without one?
Amazon.com Product Description Combining stylish looks with power sport timing and heart rate monitoring features, this mid-sized Timex Ironman Triathlon watch (model T59751) can be worn by both men and women. It features a chest strap heart rate monitor, easily accessible function buttons, and Timex's comfortable doubleshot polyurethane strap. For integrating heart rate monitoring into your training, this watch enables you to track your avareage heart rate and pre-set target heart rate zones with data for time spent within that zone and alarms. It can also display data for calories burned and offers a recovery timer that measures your heart rate after a timed recovery during or after your workout. Sport timing features include: - 100-hour chronograph with lap and split, either in large digits
- 30-lap memory with average heart rate per laps
- 100-hour, 3-mode countdown timer
- Alarm with 5-minute backup
- Month/day/date display with 12/24-hour time
- 2-year battery life
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.

Great purchase! Worth it! December 2, 2008 After much research, I recently purchased this item @ Amazon. I am very pleased! Light weight, small, and stylish. More importantly, it is VERY functional, easy to use (yes!) and worth the buy! I am an avid exerciser and wanted a new monitor that was accurate, user friendly and small, to assist heart rate monitoring while pregnant. This brand/model lives up to that-and I can change my own battery when needed-unlike the Polar. I have found it to be pretty accurate so far-testing it during a number of activities. This monitor seems to accurately reflect the change in heart rate-both while at rest and while exercising when pregnant (vs. not pregnant), and changes in response to activity level quite readily. Also, it has just enough information/functions, without bogging me down, and displays the information nicely-helpful while trying to read when running. Plus, the watch looks like a watch and can be worn all the time. I am glad I went with the Timex. So far it is living up to the reviews and Timex reputation. It fulfills all that I was looking for in a heart rate monitor and more. Excellent buy for the money!!
Good heart rate monitor November 29, 2008 This is my first heart rate monitor. Very pleased so far. I have a small wrist (approx 5" circumference) and this is the right size. Anything bigger, the face would have wrapped around my wrist. I like the watch so much that I wear it everywhere even if the watch doesn't match my business casual attire. It wasn't difficult to use the features, but I had to read the manual to get my workout 'review'. I knew I had to do some reading, because I like the timer and the workout summary at the end of my workout. I still have not programmed my personal settings for max heart rate. I would recommend this product.
If this is the midsize, where is the small? Band way too large October 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this comment useful.
I'm a 5'9" small-framed athlete, and I could not wear this watch. There simply weren't enough holes in the band for it to sit flush on my wrist. Not to mention the strap is looooooooooooong. I mean, comically long. My 5'7" male trainer put it on and was on one of the first holes. If your wrist is remotely small, there will be a huge excess of strap hanging off the end, and due to the design, it would look wrong if cut off. I had to return it. Too bad - the face size is nice for a woman's small wrist, but with the seemingly dozen other holes in the band, I had to wonder - if you're using the outermost hole, well that would look ridiculous. The face would then look miniscule on that wrist.
Great Monitor September 15, 2008 This watch works great. My only issue is that I accidentally hit the stopwatch button and stop my workout time. The heart rate monitor is very accurate. I would buy this again.
Solid HR Monitor August 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this comment useful.
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 the most reliable. I run about 30-40 miles a week, and I always wear it. I'm a database nerd, and I've been able to use the data from the watch to compile some useful information on my running progress.
High points: - Calculates calories - Easy menus and setup - Gives me just enough information (one HR monitor I tried with GPS just had too many options). - Review setting is nice
Low points: - Occassionally it will "flip out" (instead of it being 144 or 148 it will sometimes go down to 118 or up to 184). This happens only every once in awhile. - Display is only 2 lines. This is a smaller watch. 3 lines would be better so I'd be able to see my HR, total time, and split time.
I purchased the data recorder, but I don't use it anymore. The software is somewhat useless. It seems more suited to a fitness test that would be useful for a medical assessment.
If this watch had a 3-line display it would be perfect. As for the issues with the strap needing to be replaced, it seems like that's just how these things "work." I had a Nike model (junk) and another more expensive Timex (sent it back) that did not work as well as this model.
