The manual settings allow me to dial in on specific heart rate ranges for various training runs, and the lap counter is great for intervals at the track. Easy-to-use buttons, good size display is legible on the run. Maybe it's me, but changing the battery is a pain. Mine lasted over 4 years with regular use [and 1 trip to Timex for repair], and died after cracking the crystal in water. Overall very satisfied for the price, I'll probably buy the same model again.

Works great, only downside is I have an odd wrist and the band isn't that flexible.

Second downside is that it shows how out of shape I am :-(

I purchased this Timex Ironman watch about three months ago and have experienced no problems. The chest strap fits fine. On occassion, I do get an irregular "high" reading but the solution is to simply wear the unit for a couple of minutes before going into Crono mode. I use it mostly for running and cycling.

watch works fine,but poorly designed strap connections make it a pain to use.
