Summary: D-75 - Decent Watch but not for serious Walkers/Runners that expect accurate pedometer
Comment: I've been using this wath for about 6 weeks now. For what I paid here on Amazon, it was good value for what you are buying.
I can tell you the heart rate monitor, when activated, is accurate. I've compared it to the rate monitors on the cardio machines at the gym and it is right on.
I rarely use the Pedometer function as it is not very accurate. You must walk or jog with a very strict motion to engage the pedometer but it still doesn't count steps as well as a cheap waist worn pedometer. Of course, you can adjust the length of your stride. I bought a little no-frills pedometer at Walmart for $5 and it is more accurate than the D-75. I've really given it a chance but it just doesn't work quite right.
All the other functions (time, chrono, alarm, stopwatch, etc) work as advertised. I can also say it works well in the pool as I use it all the time while swimming laps and it has never given me one problem.
I have two big gripes: The gray wrist band is just plain ugly. Why they didn't color it black so it would look nice with most anything you wear is beyond me? The gray just stands out as odd looking.
Second, the watch arrived DOA with a "completely" dead battery. Took it to Walmart and got a new battery for $4. Don't know why the batteries are such an issue but I've seen others gripe about the same dead battery issue. You've been warned...

Summary: Nice watch but comes with dead battery
Comment: Watch was sent out and dead battery on arrival. Contacted seller to replace it. Promptly did and sent another watch with a dead battery. Stated Amazon kept stock but they didn't when I called Amazon to inquire. I wanted the watch so I replaced the battery. Tried to contact seller again via email with no response. If you don't want to replace the battery, don't buy from this seller."

Summary: Heart Rate for Dummies D-75
Comment: I love this watch! I run 20-30 miles a week and it is really accurate. It is pretty easy to setup. I'm still not certain how to use the HR monitor well which I why I only gave it 4 stars. This seems to be the most complicated aspect of the watch. Otherwise, a great product, especially for the price. It's slim and comfortable.
