A Timex Heart Rate Monitor and GPS Watch - Great Basic Functions and Reliability
A Timex heart rate monitor has long been associated with the Timex Ironman brand of watches that began over 30 years ago with the running
of the first Hawaiian Ironman competition. Back in the 1960's Timex was known as the brand that "takes a licking and keeps on ticking" referring to
the products reliability and durability.
With a Timex heart monitor, like the Road Trainer or the Race Trainer, you get all the good basic data including zones, zone alerts, stop watch, and may more features. These heart rate monitors give you all the solid basics for great aerobic exercise.
