Review
I bought a black one for myself and liked it so much I bought this model for my wife. Easy to use, heart rate seems reliable, and has just enough features for our purposes. But, if you’re looking for a larger watch or have large wrists, this is not the watch to choose.
Feature
- Sports timing watch with heart rate monitoring; sized for both men and women
- Chest strap heart rate monitor works with watch to provide target zones and time in zone
- Recovery heart rate timer; displays calories burned
- 100-hour chronograph; 27-lap memory; 100-hour countdown timer
- Watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet); up to 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.
