@Cheez: Yes. Polar F6 HR Watch w/ chest strap. I bought it at retail for $85 at Paragon Sports about 4 years ago and the original battery is still working. It was the cheapest monitor that is coded and recorded max hr. This prevents interference from other HR monitors at the gym and allows you to review your max hr after your workout, rather than risk "missing it" because your weren't paying attention to the real-time display. Garmin sells watches with GPS not sure if they have HR monitors built-in though.

Sometimes I wear it for anaerobic work to make sure I recover sufficiently during intervals. FYI The highest Max HR I recored was 207 during a lap swim workout, last year.

Thanks for the info - I'm kind of shopping for a HR watch - I'm going to go check yours out on Amazon right now. That's pretty cool that it's waterproof enough to go swimming.
 
@Cheez: Cool. Good luck on your purchase. What I did was I looked at the highest end model and striped away all the features that I didn't need.
