Does a chest strap come with watch? What transmits a pulse to the watch?

No. No strap. You exercise, then put your finger on pad to get heart rate. Technically... you don't even need to wear it.

Not with mine and you need to hold your finger on it to get your heart rate

You do not need a chest strap, but I can not make the heart rate monitor work! I quit using it after a couple of weeks.

The heart rate monitor goes around your chest and the watch is worn on your wrist. You can just wear the watch w/o the chest strap but it won't monitor your heart rate or calculate your calories.

Yes, the heart rate monitor comes in the box. The standard strap around the chest style. It's about as comfortable as wearing a band around your chest can be.

When you are using it as a heart rate monitor it is in that mode (you have to push a button to get it there) all it does is monitor you heart rate. You just have to look at it. No recall needed. The chest strap communicates to the watch constantly.

It's an accurate watch but the heart rate monitor does not work without the chest strap.

No the watch comes with the monitor for your heart and a strap used to attach the monitor to your chest.... This watch rocks it will also determine your VO2 max using the test settings. Also it is easier to maneuver between types of exercise than other older models.

The heart rate monitor is a strap that goes around your chest. They sell units with a strap.

Yes, it included chest strap, BUT... the strap is rather narrow compared to others I have had and the material seems flimsy. (See my prior full review.)

My order included the watch, chest strap and transmitter, but not the flow link. I purchased the flow-link (connector to your computer) separately. When ordering the watch you need to be careful because it is sold separately. I made sure the chest strap and transmitter were included.

The chest strap is required to receive a heart rate. If it doesn't connect initially, try getting the chest strap sensors wet, then putting it on and holding the watch to the chest strap after it is on your chest. I haven't used it as a watch but I would assume.

Hello Mr. Pinto. No, the monitor wiill not work without the chest strap. The chest strap has to be fitted farily tightly around your chest and the strap and the electrode should also be moistened. This improves the performance of the monitor. Also, the strap and electrode should be cleaned as per the supplied instructions and stored separately after use. Hope this answers your question. Good luck.
