Editorial Review: Product Description: Heart Touch
Amazon.com Product Description: Improve your daily and weekly workout routine with the Reebok strapless heart rate monitor watch. Outfitted with several handy features, the watch is ideal for runners who don't want to deal with a cumbersome chest strap while working out. The watch delivers several accurate heart rate readings, including maximum, average, and minimum heart rates. As a result, it's easy to determine whether you're running at a steady pace or you need to pick up the intensity a bit. The watch also offers a 100-hour chronograph with 50 memory slots, so you can recall your average heart rate and split time for your last several workouts. And thanks to the four training zone sessions--each with an optional visual and double alarm--it's easy to design an effective workout regimen. Other details include a scrolling dot matrix display with Reflec-trix technology; a quick-start mode that gets you going after entering your age and heart rate; a Softex transmitter belt with a user-replaceable battery; water-resistance to 30 meters; and all the standard watch functions, including 12- and 24-hour time modes showing hours, minutes, and seconds. 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. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not so much....Some problems with keeping time... inexplicably resets the time randomly. And some difficulties in consistently reading pulse accurately. Good idea that didn't work so well in practice. Maybe I was expecting too much for the money. Rating: - Not bad for the price and strapless.For $30 and no strap this is a decent device. My resting HR is 68, here are consecutive readings: 68, 63, 68, 68, 64, 68, 69, 70, 75, 66, 68, 63, 68, 65. It does not give a constant "live" reading from your wrist. HR measurement comes from placing your thumb and index finger on two metal pads on the front of the watch for 3-8 seconds. Finger location on the pads definitely affects the readings, so you may need to do some trial and error to get accurate readings. Long story short, if you want ... Read More Rating:  - Junk In order to obtain my heart rate, I followed the directions and placed the pads of my fingers on each of the touch sensors. This monitor did not display my heart rate and kept defaulting to the time of day. Do not recommend. Rating:  - Works great for quick heart-rate check.I use it when swimming laps. At end of a set, I grab the monitor-watch from poolside, lay it on my wrist, and take a quick reading. The monitor doesn't even have to be strapped on! Rating:  - Great value for the priceThis works great! The only thing is that you have to press the silver button below to get a reading. But for 40 bucks, it's worth it if you're looking for a cheap heart monitor watch that does the job. Browse for similar items by category:
