Amazon.com Product Description
Combining stylish looks with power sport timing and heart rate monitoring features, this mid-sized Timex Digital Fitness watch (model T5J983) can be worn by both men and women. It features a chest strap heart rate monitor, easily accessible function buttons, durable resin case, and comfortable resin strap with a stylish tapered profile. 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
  • 27-lap memory with average heart rate per laps
  • 100-hour countdown timer
  • Alarm with 5-minute backup
  • Month/day/date display with 12/24-hour time
  • 3.5-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.

5 out of 5 stars Timex T5J983 great!   November 6, 2009
Karlacr (SJ, Costa Rica)
This is the watch that I was looking for. It is great. It works as it says and it means that was specially made for me.
The size is great, the color beautiful and it is so easy to use all the functions that it has.

R. Mozeleski (Maine United States)
I got this for my biking but have been using it swimming too. Does what i want with bells and whistles what i don't need. Nice having the time too. A bit tight for my wrists but I'm enjoying it.


2 out of 5 stars Stopped working in under a year   June 29, 2009

It worked fine for a while, even without interference from machines at the gym. Before a year was up, it stopped working. The watch part still works, but the strap doesn't transmit any data. I have replaced both batteries and still, nothing. I would have expected more especially since I didn't beat it to death and wear it every day


5 out of 5 stars Works Great!   May 29, 2009

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.


2 out of 5 stars Had to return it...   May 19, 2009

I bought and used it for about 5 weeks, everyday. After pushing buttons for hours, I finally got it set up with my details and it worked great, for a couple of weeks. Then, it stopped counting the calories (one of the main reasons I wanted this gadget). The next day, it seemed to work again so off I went for another few weeks of daily workouts and calorie burn. Then, it stopped counting calories again and never counted another calorie after that. All the other functions seemed to work fine but the calories were zero every day for days. I finally sent it back and am searching for a replacement. Darn!
