does this strap come with a heart monitor?

The strap is a sensor--it has everything to detect your heart rate--but you of course have to buy the display unit. It'll work with a Garmin or other ANT device.

I too was looking for quite sometime for this, and it appears no one has answered you here, so, yes, it appears it DOES come with the HR strap and sensors: http://jasechong.wordpress.com/2011/02/09/sigma-1909-hr-sts-bike-computer-review/

Yes it does. Almost anything anyway, as long as you have a heart rate monitor strap. I even used it whilst sleeping to see how low my HR would go!

No, it does not. With a snug fit on your wrist, it uses your wrist's heartbeat for all heart rate features.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question. I can tell you that this watch doesn't come with a heart rate monitor. I bought 2 of them. I'm not sure where Amazon got that picture from showing the watch with a monitor cord.

It does have a pulse rate monitor, but you have access the back of the device - it has to be take out of the wrist band or clip holder to perform the function.

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.

Yes, it comes with a chest strap. I would recommend the screen cover. I didn't buy one when I purchased it. The watch face is durable, however we train hard!

The one I got was the Garmin Premium Heart Rate Monitor (Soft Strap) ordered on Amazon. It works perfectly.

I don't believe it does, I bought it just for the heart monitor when working out.

The heart rate monitor is optional. You can purchase the wrist unit without the heart rate monitor, or both. If you purchase the wrist unit without, you can buy the chest strap heart rate monitor later.

Yes. There is a chest strap to monitor your heart rate. A sensor for the crank to measure the cadence and a sensor for the wheel to measure the speed.

It will monitor resting heart rate.So long as the chest strap is properly positioned it will monitor your heart rate.

This version - the HRM version does include a chest strap. You can also buy a version without HRM.
