can you use this watch with the heart monitor?

No. Look for the Ironman Triathlon model and make sure it specifically says you can use it with the monitor.

This comes with a 'bundle' option. You may buy the watch alone, or buy the watch with the heart rate monitor. If you buy only the watch, you may add the heart rate monitor later.

Hello Beth,For the model I have (Model: 8RS00) there is an additional heart rate strap which needs to be purchased/worn to monitor heart rate. I think there is another model which has it built into the watch, but I'm not sure which one. I've really enjoyed this watch and for my purposes, running, swimming and biking, it's awesome. Good upload onto my iPhone App and good reports for distances, speed, etc. Hope that helps!

Yes but the heart rate monitor works with the Motoactv watch. The watch displays heart rate and steps and calories burned. No phone required.

No, you can only display heart rate on one screen. I actually use a Polar receiver (watch) to receive the signals from the Omron Chest strap. The polar readout allows you display stop watch, heart rate and calories burned on one screen. The polar receivers are good, but the transmitters are worthless. They go defective after about a month and battery replacement doesn't solve the problem. The Omron transmitters are good quality.

Of curse you have! Otherwise the watch won't be able to count your heart rate and calories burned. It's a must to wear it...

No, this watch is essentially the bluetooth headset. That would be like pairing a bluetooth headset to another headset. Nothing accomplished there.

I use this heart monitor but not with the app suggested. It will work with multiple apps so I'm sure there is probably one that will alert you to a specific heart rate. I use mapmyfitness.

Absolutely, I have mine hooked up to my heart rate monitor and speed/cadence sensors. Works flawlessly.

The GSI is probably water-resistant to a depth of several maters, so you likely wouldn't hurt it if you wore it while swimming as a watch. However, the heart rate monitor works on the basis of wireless transmission from the chest strap to the GSI. This is designed for transmission through air, not through water. I wouldn't risk it.

Dear Michael: Thank you for your question. I personally have only experience with the heart rate monitor that came with the TomTom watch. I suggest you connect with www.tomtom.com and ask them directly. Technical support by TomTom is outstanding.

Yes you can use it while walking if you wish to know the distance you walked, you would just need to set the watch to running mode

Not really. It can't be used as a stop watch. It is a very basic heart rate monitor. I highly recommend this watch. It is a great value; and easy to use.

Anatólio, you can use any kind of watchband compatible with ANT+. For example I'm using this watch with an Adidas heart rate band.

No. You have to place the index and middle fingers on the sensors that are next to the watch display. In a few seconds it will show the value of your heartbeat and the percentage relative to the maximum for your age.

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.

You need to be more specific with your questions. Your best bet is to find and download the user's manual. It will give you specific instructions. However, I wouldn't recommend this watch - at least not based on my experience. Its performance (as a heart monitor) is inconsistent - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
