Product Description Time of day, calendar and alarm / Backlight for easy low light viewing / Water resistant / EKG accurate / 100 hour stopwatch and countdown timer
Amazon.com Product Description Specifically made for women, with its lightweight and slender design, this all-in-one heart rate monitor and sports watch by Reebok uses a patented method called "pulse technology" to measure the electrical pulses sent out by your heart each time it beats. Of course, the amazing part is that it works by finger touch rather than the cumbersome chest strap used by most other heart monitors. Within four seconds of touching the sensors on the watch, you can get not only an accurate heart rate reading, but also the number of calories burned during your workout. The monitor has a programmable heart rate zone with audible and visual alarms to alert you when you get out of zone, plus a settable alarm if you have a maximum rate you should not exceed. Made from durable plastic and fully water-resistant, the device also features regular watch functions, plus a 100-hour stopwatch and countdown timer. It comes with a complete walking and exercise guide and one-year warranty. About Reebok Reebok's United Kingdom-based ancestor company was founded for one of the best reasons possible: athletes wanted to run faster. So, in the 1890s, Joseph William Foster made some of the first known running shoes with spikes in them. By 1895, he was in business making shoes by hand for top runners; and before long his fledgling company, J.W. Foster and Sons, developed an international clientele of distinguished athletes. In 1958, two of the founder's grandsons started a companion company that came to be known as Reebok, named for an African gazelle.

Good Product with one drawback. June 7, 2006 C. Phillips (Southern CA, USA) 144 out of 145 found this review helpful
I recently purchased this product and was dissapointed that it doesn't continuously take your heart rate. You have to push down on the two silver buttons above and below the screen with your index and middle fingers to get a heart rate reading. If I would have done my research beforehand I wouldn't have been surprised at this, I know. Anyway, now that I have it I am pretty pleased with the product. The pros of this product are as follows; I really like not having to wear a chest strap transmitter. I like that it is slightly "girlier" looking; I have the blue model, and I like it better than my very basic, big clunky Polar model. I like the calorie counter. It is as accurate as my Polar model with the chest strap; I used both watches during my last workout on my elliptical machine, and everytime I took my heart rate with this watch it was usually within 2 BPM of my Polar Watch. At the most, a few times the difference between the watches was 4 BPM. The only drawback to this product in my opinion as I've mentioned before is the fact that it does not automatically and continuously take your heart rate. Once I get used to that I think I'll really enjoy this watch.
I love this thing February 9, 2007 astilla hill (La Paz, Bolivia) 64 out of 65 found this review helpful
I waited until the heart rate monitors that didn't require a chest strap were affordable to buy one (they were $300 at one point, and CLUNKY). This one is tiny (relative to other models, i.e. the polar) and I'm very impressed. It takes about 2 -3 seconds to measure your heart rate, but it's very accurate. I like the calorie counting feature, too, although as the computer never asks you your weight it is probably making the calorie - burning calculaltion for a "standard" weight, i.e. 150 pounds. You have to make the adjustment (if you weigh less) yourself. Surprisingly easy to use, too! I am hopeless with these things but this one is intuitive. I daresay I didn't even bother with the manual (does anyone?) Great product, and a very good price for what you get!
Great product January 11, 2007 Paul F. Aberts III (Manassas, VA) 41 out of 43 found this review helpful
I was doubtful if a heart rate monitor without a body strap would work, but my wife assures me that she has had it tested at her gym and it is extremly accurate. Great product.
This was exactly what I wanted! June 4, 2007 R. Keller 26 out of 26 found this review helpful
I received this last week and haven't taken it off since. I have used it while running and while exercising in my living room. The quality seems good, the fit is perfect for me and the instructions are clear. I love the calorie counter and the HRM seems extremely accurate. I also purchased a blood pressure wrist monitor, so I have measured my HR with the watch and then the blood pressure cuff and the readings always match or are extremely close. The only downfall is that you do have to be almost not moving for it to pick up your HR. I wish I didn't have to stop to have this feature work, especially when running. Other than that minor detail-I love it!

I liked the idea of not wearing a strap while working out, but in reality they are better. This one works fine, no problem there. But in the middle of your cardio routine you have to stop enough to use the two fingers from your free hand to press on the watch you are wearing and it takes a few seconds (5) to give you the read out. By then your heart rate is already starting to go down. If you want real accurate measurements and you want them at a glance...the strap is the best way to go. You just have to look at the watch to know where your heart rate is.
