Pros: Durable, Great Value, Comfortable
"I’ve now had the watch for 2 months and I must say it’s very good. The watch is very accurate, I swam a couple of 1000m swims and it measured it correctly every time. I also did some 25m and 50m intervals and again it measured correctly knowing when you had stopped at each length. I particularly liked the efficiency index which shows how efficient your stroke is, it’s good to be able to compare your sessions with this data, especially for long distance swimming.
Only gripes were the set up of the watch was a little fiddly (mostly due to me not reading the instructions first time) and when doing single arm drills or kick drills it does not register your lap but that is to be expected."

"This watch is amazing makes training so much easier not having not count lengths. very accurate so clever the only tiny floor is that you cant pause it without it resetting your time."

Works Well
Pros: Versatile
"Negatives: Not 100% intuitive. If you are pushing sets then pressing the pause button firmly enough can be a bit hit or miss as you are breathing too hard to concentrate. Just minor issues.
Postives: Like the way it counts your pause time between sets. Brainless counting of lengths and total time. Once you get the hang of it, it is easy to use. for easy recording of what you have done and and over time your improvements. Recommended.

Really great for improving
Pros: Comfortable, Versatile
"I bought this in the hope that it would give me some motivatianl feedback n my swimming - and it has been great. I am a pretty poor swimmer working on improving my basic technique and the pool Mate gives me a very clear idea of how much progress I am making. It sem sto work really well. I'm not sure if £60's is good value but I am happy with it. The alternative was £40 more."

Expectativas cumplidas
"Lo utilizo cada vez que voy a la piscina y funciona perfectamente. Los primeros días posteriores a su compra iba comprobando largo a largo para verificar su fiabilidad, y efectivamente confirmo lo que he podido leer en otras reseñas, es del 100%.
Da igual como hagas el viraje, el reloj reconoce el final y el principo de los largos.
Además dispone de más funciones que permiten grabar los entrenamientos, eficiencia del nado, etc...
Responde totalmente a mis expectativas.

Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"The watch is good and much more simple to use than I thought it would be. It is great to swim and not think about how many laps you have done. I always wanted a swim buddy and this is it! It motivates me to work at my swimming and my stroke rate."

Great motivator
Pros: High Quality, Adjustable
Cons: Bulky
"Really handy tool - I always used to lose track of laps but this counts them perfectly.
Great with the stroke count/efficiency too.
At the start I had a bit of trouble with it overestimating my laps, but after I swapped it from my left to right hand the problem was solved (that's why I only give it 4 stars for performance)
I've found it makes swimming laps more fun, I am always trying to beat my last count/times etc., and now look forward to my swims just so I can use the watch.
