Additional functions include 'Percentage-of-Max Heart Rate Display' and 'Calories Burned.'

Excellent..., February 5, 2010 By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Timex Ironman Midsize Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor with Data Xchanger Watch, Black/Grey, Mid Size (Sports) I had been using a Timex for several years, and was very happy with it until it started malfunctioning. I went looking for a new one, comparing Polar, Suunto, and then later Timex. My two primary concerns were quality, a diffuse set of factors, and the ability to work with an Apple running Mac OS X. Only some of Polar's and Suunto's watches work with a Mac, and then only with external software. I was surprised when I found Timex's Ironman Trainer packages also worked with Apple.
Provisos:
- A sleek light watch, that fits my wrists - I have proportionately slender wrists, although I'm fairly large - but might be unusable on men with large wrists.
- Data management is done on a website, requiring registration
Pros:
- Looks great
- Easy to use, although it has many features
- Reliable (assumed from my long-term experience with other Timex watches)
- Inexpensive (the cost was $50 less than advertised elsewhere, and much... Read more

The light on this watch broke within 2 months, October 26, 2010 By Sean M G Bradley (Shrub Oak, NY United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Timex Ironman Midsize Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor with Data Xchanger Watch, Black/Grey, Mid Size (Sports) The light on this watch broke after owning it for less than 2 months and I am only eligible for a partial refund!!!! This is a problem with TIMEX and AMAZON. Maybe we should just purchase directly from a local vendor rather than Amazon, where they treat customers with more repect.
timex ironman watch, June 30, 2011 Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Timex Ironman Midsize Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor with Data Xchanger Watch, Black/Grey, Mid Size (Sports) I like the watch but the software and use of it definitely takes time and focus. Its not intuitive. I'm glad they have videos posted on Youtube. I is helping me to understand my heartrate paired with my training. But I am not impressed with the software, download of data, viewing and using the features. Seems like there are lots of features. But.... between training, working and keeping the house up, I don't have time to study it.
