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.

Sports reviews of Timex Ironman T5F001 Unisex 100-Lap Target Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch

Customer Review: A Satisfied Owner of Timex Ironman T5F001
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

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

Customer Review: Excellent Purchase!!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

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.



Customer Review: Heart Rate Watch
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I purchased a Heart Rate Watch & Chest Strap for my husband for xmas 09. I ordered the watch approx 8-10 day before and it arrived within 4 days.
My husband loves the watch and it looks and works perfectly. The watch is used for intensive training and it seems to handle it well.
I would recommend this to anyone.
Amazon have been very quick with posting the item out. I searched for some time trying to find the cheapest and amazon couldn't be beaten on price.

Customer Review: Everything I needed and more
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Excellent product. My first HRM and I am more than satisfied. It has really helped my training as I was kind of a naysayer to these before I got one. Between checking my pulse manually and when on cardio equipment, I have found it to be spot on 90% of the time with a variance of +/- 1-3 BPM the rest of the time. Highly recommended especially for fist time users. Can also be used with GPS, purchased separately, if desired.

Customer Review: Great Watch
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Great Watch. I use it every day. Nice enough to wear every day to work and great for the gym. Chest strap is comfortable and I have had no problems with it. Watch is easy to use, and easy to view. Monitor seems accurate when compared to HRM's on equipment at the gym they show the same rate.
