Much more than expected
By Robbie
Good: Accurate Readings, Comfortable Watch, Comfortable Chest Strap, Can get heart rate with or without chest strap, Nice Features, Looks Great.
Bad: Instructions aren’t that great. Watch isn’t too complicated, so once you learn everything it’s actually finelooking easy.
Well, I’ll get started by saying two things: I did not buy this off Amazon and this is my firstborn hr monitor watch. Having said those things, I have researched the heck out of hr monitor watches. I actually couldn’t determine if I wanted a chest strap or not. I knew the gains of both and had no idea which one was better. Then I ran into this Sportline 1025.
Whats great regarding this watch is that you may get your heart rate with or without the strap. For those that don’t know much regarding hr monitors, the strap gives you your heart rate perpetually while without the strap you have to press and hold a button on the watch. I in truth don’t want to always wear the strap for the duration of specific workouts, and now I don’t have to and still get my heart rate!
Getting the heart rate without the strap is easy. Touch the watch (no button with this watch!) and normally within a few seconds you get your heart rate. It took a little practice, but now I get it to tell quickly and accurately everytime. Readings have seemed exact (even when not exercising), only may think of a couple of times that it seemed off and that could of been my fault.
The heart rate monitor when you using the chest strap is great. Exactly what you’d expect: neverending exact heart rate readings. Strap is comfortable and you don’t even detect it. Usually I just put numerous water on it pre-workout to make sure I have a good “connection” because I’m not sweating yet.
All the features the watch have work great. I admit, it was a little mixing up to figure it all out at first. The instructions that come with the watch are not very good. But now since I comprehend everything, it feels simple. I assume for people not buying their basi hr watch, that this would be very simple from the start.
The watch and display look great! Everything is very easy to read. The main display is awesome, the heart rates are easy to read, and it’s only when you use the chrono that things get “a little” small, but still wholly readable.
I plan to wear this watch even when not working out. No, you shouldn’t wear it for a imagination dinner, but it is a nice sufficient for regular use. One last great thing: you may change the batteries yourself. That is a huge plus (although getting much more mutual in hr monitor watches). The chest strap battery last 300-400 hours before calling for to be change.
I’d commend this to anyone, new or experienced

Great product!
By Glinnesa
I searched around in stores and online for a heartrate monitor. I am starting in getting healthful and fit and it was necessary that I track my heart rate as well as calories expended when working out as I find the machines to be exceedingly inaccurate. I at last settled on this product because I was competent to track my workouts and save them for at least a week. It took a moment to figure out how to use…the manual is exceedingly indispensable to have a keep handy…but once I figured it out, I was good to go. It is a comfortable fit and I find it to be accurate. I am presently not using all of the features, but there are a lot, such as an alarm if you go above or under your target heart rate. It is a outstanding product that I would commend to friends.

I genuinely wish this point was in the product creative writing of recognized artisti value on Amazon
By neverending learner
The the battery in watch portion of this product needs to be changed by a jeweler. I would not have purchased this product had I known that; however, on a more positive note, the watch has a battery saving service (the watch may be turned “off” without losing the settings). It has been my experience that the batteries normally will last with regards to a year in these watches and it is very difficult to find a jeweler who is more than willing to change the battery. I hope I have better experience with this battery.
Another item humans might want to recognise that is not listed is the chest monitor is made in China.
