I am looking for a good heart rate monitor watches...I have seen some that are pretty expensive but my budget is limited. Any suggestions on a fairly inexpensive brand?

    Amazon has a few decent ones. The brands I'd stick to are Timex and Polar. Timex is cheaper than Polar. I've heard Garmin is good too. Check out Amazon.com. You can read reviews on there.

    Also, check Ebay. I got my brand new Polar through Ebay awhile ago and saved a ton. It worked perfectly for years, and I just had it serviced by Polar (new battery), and it came back working perfectly.

    They can be a little pricy Amazon is a good place to find an inexpensive one. I have a polar FT7 and I love it.it was a little over $100 but well worth it .It tells me how many calories I burned and stores up to 2 weeks worth of data as well as other features.****s has them too. (If you have a ****s) They have layaway too. OMG! ****sSporting goods I cant believe they stared that out

    I just bought a Timex Personal Trainer that was highly recommended by Consumer Reports. I got it at best buy for around 40 dollars on sale.. I'm gonna try it out tonight and see how well it works.

    Still laughing at this every time I read it!

    On subject though, I will be receiving my Polar Ft60 on Saturday!!! I'm a little more of a fitness, program, tracking, extra features lover of things, so I went ahead and got the more expensive one to track everything I do... but I've heard nothing but good from the Ft7 for one on a budget!

    +1 for the Ft7!

    I bought the Timex one that is $39.05. It is real basic, but it gives me calories burned time in zone etc. It sure does work well and I have no complaints at all.
