Amazon.com Product Description
Stylish enough for the weekend warrior yet technical enough for serious athletes, the Timex Ironman Triathlon heart rate monitor (model T5F001) can be worn by both men and women. It features a chest strap heart rate monitor, large 3-line display for easy viewing of your workout data, and a full range of sport timing features. This watch features a silver face, durable black resin strap, and large buttons for easy access to timing functions. 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 also offers up to four linked interval timers, each with its own target zone, and a recovery timer that measures your heart rate after a timed recovery during or after your workout. Other features include: - 5 interval timer workouts with warm-up and cool-down
- 100-hour chronograph with lap and split, either in large digits
- 100-lap memory with average heart rate per laps
- 100-hour, 3-mode countdown timer
- 5 alarms with daily/weekday/weekend options
- 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.

 Another Timex Dud November 22, 2009
Dward (Boston)
This is my third Timex Ironman HRM and the last one I'll ever buy. I've previously bought the less expensive Timex HRM and found out they're not waterproof. Why should I expect water-resistant to 50m and being called a TRIATHLON watch (swim is part of triathlon I think) indicate I could rely on it to withstand a few swims and some sweating? Wrong! Both of my first two watches went down in a heap of water bubbles under the crystal after a few swims in the lake. Timex sent me replacements (for a 6$ surcharge): the first replacement worked for about 2wks then read my heart rate consistently at 249bpm; the second watch developed water droplets under the crystal after a few sweaty runs in the heat of summer.
But I like the look of the watch so I went for the upgrade - the T5F001. It is a fairly good watch and does essentially the bare basics of a running watch that I need EXCEPT when I run in the winter and require more than 2 layers on top. For some reason, the monitor is unable to pick up a signal through a few extra shirts. Once again, I'm left with a suboptimal HRM from Timex. My recommendation - go for the Suunto.

I bought this watch two months ago, and have been training with it since then. I have to tell you that at the price advertised, this watch is a real bargain.
I had doubts when deciding my purchase due to a couple of negative reviews, but after using the watch I am really happy with my purchase.
The watch looks nice, so you won't have any problem wearing it all day and if this is your first HRM, it will change your training forever.
I have to tell you that the watch is a very sophisticated training tool, so I urge to read the manual. This is important even for small details, for example, at the beginning I was worried because the watch was not reading my heart rate instantly, after reading the manual I became aware that you need to moisten the sensor before using it, and problem solved. The watch has been working perfectly.
This watch offers a lot of very useful functions that other more expensive watches do not. It is an excellent sports watch and an excellent heart rate monitor as well.

Did lot of research before buying this watch. I had options of other Timex HRM with better views but I went for this one with only 12 views and overall 3 star rating. Why? Because I had a feeling that this item was under rated and yes, I was right! I have been using this HRM for about 5 days now. No issue at all. Picks up signal in an instant with stock batteries. However I do apply water on back of sensor before using it. I checked the reading against my treadmill sensor and it was exactly the same. It has all the functions and feature that one need in HRM. My intent was to burn some fats and this HRM told me that I jog most of the time in Zone 1 instead of Zone 3 (fat burning zone). I have been jogging for about 8 months now and this watch instantly told me that I am not doing it right! Now I am changing my workout plan accordingly. For those who do workout, I highly recommend a HRM and if you are out for one, get this Timex Ironman T5F001 Unisex 100-Lap Target Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch. You won't regret. AG
Heart Rate Readings all over the map... June 17, 2009
Steven Hays (La Vergne, TN USA)
I had pretty high expectations for the Timex to replace my existing HRM since I'd had one of the first Timex HRM's a while ago and was very pleased with it. However, after reading up in the training manual and strapping it on for my first workout, I noticed strange behavior; it read my resting heart rate spot on, but after starting my workout, it kept reading significantly low rates for the first half hour of the workout. It was like it kept "creeping up" on my heart rate. 15 minutes into the exercise, I should have been low 120's and it was still in the 80's and climbing. Towards the end of the workout it finally peaked over 160, and stayed there, when it should have been 130's to 140's. Strange! I thought maybe it was calibrating itself, but it did the same thing the next time out. Definitely a problem with it. I turned it back in, and decided to get a Suunto T4C HRM...much nicer IMHO.
