Sensor and strap are easy to put together and adapt to the chest. The sensor is a little rugged, does not bother the bear, however, sitting with the belt precisely and safely. So far, no skin reactions (redness etc.) were observed.
The clock looks pretty, feels good and is comfortable to wear. The basic settings should be made easy, the manual does not need it to be read. Even the so-called. "Training" (Time / Pulse) is easy to start, with the first clock synchronized with the sensor.
The coded connection Clock / sensor is very stable, so far I could no similar interference from other heart rate monitors, cell phones, electrical appliances, power lines Watch. The pulse value is displayed centrally and very readable on the display of the clock. The measured values are plausible and have been confirmed by comparison with other devices: an absolutely reliable training aid, whether indoors or outdoors.
The operation is coherent and able to look at the training even without after a short time. Various display options and analysis results inform about all important times and dates.
The clock seems to be sufficiently waterproof, anyway could you sweat, shower and pool to date not harm.
Shortcoming I: The steps are sometimes a bit "long" and should be optimized, ie abbreviated. Manko II: The time is displayed in the standby mode, only four digits without seconds (in stop mode of course incl sec..). That is why only four stars.
Conclusion: Appropriate and reliable heart rate monitor that looks also quite pretty. To the current Amazon price: you!
