HRM Advice UK

Hello,
Can anyone recommend a good, but resonably priced HRM. I am based in the UK. I need it to tell me how many calories I've burned during gym classes, cycling etc. and be ok to take swimming.
Any advice very much appreciated

Hey,
Based on advice I found around here I bought a polar FT4 from amazon and I love it! It's easy to set up and use and I wouldn't be without it now! I've had a quick look and it is suitable for use while swimming, but it might be worth checking out forums or reviews to see if it works OK, as I've heard chlorine can cause problems with HRMs
Good luck!0 -
Yep, me too, Polar T4 from Amazon does me very nicely, but I'm not sure about underwater. See alternative thread: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/302482-swimming-with-a-polar-t40
