SUUNTO M5 HRM Training Watch - One - Black

I find everything about this product good when I'm on dry land. If I try to use it swimming laps, not so good. I was hoping to find out how high I could get my heart rate with swimming since it is the exercise of choice for me but the connection is not letting me do that. If I'm lucky I get a heart rate if I'm resting between laps. Other than that, walking, playing tennis I can record a good workout.

As a fitness instructor I've a lot of experience with these types of watches. I've always been a polar brand person, but really wanted a change of pace and I liked how this one looked. The watch itself is ok, the only negative here is button placement. I've never had a problem with accidentally pushing buttons before but with this one I often look down in the middle of a workout and find that I've yet again stopped it. Which is more than a little frustrating, there is a button you can hold down that will lock the buttons but this prevents you from changing the screen or viewing the time. Wither it's the size or the placement I don't know, but I was willing to work with it. The chest strap, what a disappointment. Cheaply made, the elasticity started to ebb away about a month into me wearing it, it started to fray a little at month 2, but month 3 was the final nail in the coffin. While doing pull ups, the cheap plastic piece in the center broke. Now to replace it it's about $50!!!! That's a 1/3 of the original price! Not worth it.

Like this heart rate monitor after debating between this model and Polar one. Originally waited for Jawbone Up3 but Heart rate function ended up not being continuous. Glad I decided on this one as numbers show up large and you can see it easily during a group class or dark spin room. Was hesitant about wearing a chest strap but the Suunto one is very comfortable.

Good motivational watch. Haven't lost any weight though, but have definitely gotten into better shape. I can now run for about 45 minutes at 4.5 to 5 miles per hour. Something unthinkable a few months ago. I will just need to cut down on food or add weight training.

This is i think my 4th HRM & i am more than pleased with it so far! I still need to figure a thing or 2 about it as it does more than i think i am fully using at this point. I run & spin & it tracks my heart rate, my calories, time, & more. I am now thinking about get the gadget that tracks your speed & distance (for when i run) as it has good reviews as well. PLus, this watch looks really cool & ppl compliment it all the time!

More detail the pru

It is a comfortable clock, can be used easily for the day to day, in terms of heart rate and physical activity I prefer my old POLAR FT4, besides this with only 6 months of use the belt broke, poor quality

xcellent clock to train, it is not heavy and is easy to control , give me the details of my workouts

Perfect service and product! Many thanks.
