Would this good for a self winding watch...So I don't have to wear everyday ?

Probably not. The mechanism in the watch winds from the swing of your arm as you walk.The slow rotation won't help with that.

I think it would be easier for you to wind the watch. I have to restart them dang things every ten minutes are so. Not worth the money

No, first off it will slow down in time. Second there is simply not enough kinetic motion to be effective. Get a rotation box instead.

I do not think this clock should be used for day to day.It's great is heavier than conventional watches.I think you should only use it in their practice.

The watch band on this particular watch is not replaceable as it is a part of the face as well. If you are looking for a ladies size watch I would recommend the VibraLite Mini series which have significantly smaller wristbands.

Yes it definally can be worn for a everyday look...I suggest u braid it downward every night and do not sleep in it...That will keep it in place and in good condition:)

Good question. I have shorts that have a pocket watch and I slip it in there. It seems to me to be deficient on that point. I guess you could tie a string around it, securely, and place it around neck or attach to arm.

I would say no. It's a fashion watch. I work in the ER but I'm also a nursing student. So for lab or weekly clinical- it does the job. The band is stiff & thin. It's pretty. That's about all it's got going for it.

I would say no ... it is more on the electronics general use. Maybe the smallest sized MAY be used to pry open a watch's back. but definitely it won't help you disassembling the machine inside the watch.

Hi, No - I have lots of big watches, and they will not fit here. I use this for large pendants and they fit from a width perspective but are sometimes tight from a depth perspective. There is some good clearance on the top when you close the case, as the glass panel doesn't fit snugly against the base of the case, but your watch would not "curl" up and fit into a single slot. You could probably put the watch face within one of the slots, and then drape the band over and let it "spill" into the adjacent slots. But watches would only fit face up, not on their sides. It's not deep enough. I will try some of my big watches tonight, just to be sure, and reply again tomorrow. UPDATE - tried it last night and didn't like how the watches worked. I'd say NO.

I am not using this watch any more. As far as I know you can run it continuously. While the chest strap is reasonably comfortable you would have to be wearing that continuously also. you can go to the polar.com website for more information and I'm sure you can call theirsales or support line for this information. Sorry couldn't be more helpful

You can wear it during the day but it is very bulky and restrictive. You will not be able to use your hand or fingers to do much of anything. I suggest using the Mueller wrist brace for working.

No, I wouldn't recommend it for that reason. Timex has an Ironman watch that is great as a regular and running watch. This watch is good for the GPS, while road running.

It largely depends on exactly what you mean by "occasionally". The battery life on this is only 10 hours, it's intended to be worn only while actively working out, so if you're looking for your heart to start race "occasionally" during short predefined periods of time then it would work great. If you're looking for detection at some arbitrary time during your normal day, then no this isn't the product for you.

I used it through nursing school and invested in a good watch. The idea of it being around your neck is good in theory but not very practical in the field. The watch face is too small and you need both your hands for tasks and with this you have to hold it to see the face while doing your task. Get a watch that is water resistant or proof, analog, and has a comfortable strap that is flexible (leather won't hold up). A band that stretches is optimum so you can push up your arm when doing a task then keep there to scrub up when done.

all watches with a temp will do that. Only way to go around it is to take it off to measure temp. Once its on the hand your body temp will affect it. But thats why I use it as a guage to get a ruff idea.

Am a lady and the watch is very big on my wrist, almost on the last hole so I would not use it as everyday. Sure do love it for sports. Walking, cycling, and riding horses.

I suppose if you are the sort that likes to shower with a wrist watch on, it would hold up.....Personally, I like to clean my wrists along with the rest of me, so I don`t shower with a watch on...or anything else.I have washed dishes with it on....But that is not taking a shower.
