Review on 🕒 Timex Full-Size Ironman Road Trainer HR Monitor by Trevor Rodke

The watch is great. The resin band sucks. Now I have 3 of these still good watches that are unusable because the polymer straps break and there are no replacement straps. I have tried. So now I'm buying new watches again just because my current strap broke again. It is not possible to use a resin-free strap with this style. That's good for Timex, but bad for us. I'm honestly surprised. Overall, I think Timex offers remarkable value, which is why this particular weakness comes as a surprise. Last edit: I wrote this review in January 2016. It's May 30th, 2017 and the strap on the watch I bought last year just broke. So now I have 4 hours of work (the watch is awesome, no problem) with broken straps to put in my pocket. I will not buy it again, the watch is just as good. I'm going to buy another non-HRM strap and then I'll have to buy some sort of HRM-only strap to wear when I work out. it's a pain I have no idea why Timex doesn't offer a different strap for this watch.
