With all the focus on fitness these days watches with pulse rate functionality have become very popular. It is amazing that you can get this type of detailed health information from a watch!

All are not created equally however. There are some that are extremely complicated and have very diverse features. For example some not only have pulse rate information but they also have GPS and other functions that one would possibly use on a run.

It used to be that people only got health information from their physicians. But now, it is not uncommon for people who workout to constantly monitor their heart rate and other vital functions to make sure that they are working out healthy and they are in the correct fat burning zone.

That fat burning zone can only be achieved if you pay particular attention to the exact heart rate that will yield that type of results. If you are operating at a high heart rate, then you may not be able to burn fat and lose weight at the proper rate. If you are operating at too low a heart rate your health benefits will be consequently less as well.

Needless to say, a watch with heart monitoring function is designed to keep up with health statistics while you are working out. Some can get fairly complicated, but most just report to you what your pulse is at the time and will save that information for later analysis.

It is good news that most heart rate watches are extremely accurate. There are two types basically - ones that require a strap be placed around your chest and another kind gets its sensory information directly from the back of the watch on your arm.

Now, here are the best heart rate monitor watch manufacturers on the market:

* The Polar products are by far the most popular. You will even see polar heart rate monitoring equipment on gymnasium devices like elliptical equipment and Stairmasters. Polar was the leader in developing this technology and produces the most sought after products. However, they are not the most expensive products on the market. You can expect pay less than $300 for a high quality Polar instrument.

* Timex has always been the leader in digital technology because they make the most products and therefore their products are the least expensive for what you get. They are super accurate and very durable. This means that you can take them out on a run and not be afraid that they will get damaged easily. Timex watch products in this category run under $100.

* Suunto makes the highest end watches with pulse functionality, just like they do with altimeter watches and GPS watches. They simply make the highest end products in the sports watch category. But you pay more for that type of functionality. These watches can run upwards of $300 or more. However, their strong suite is they usually have very large faces that make them very easy to read and when you're on a run it is convenient to be able to look down and quickly pick up on the information on your watch. You can only do this if the watch face is large.

* In GPS technology and subsequently in pulse rate technology, Garmin is a leader as well. Most watches that they produce have dual functions and can provide you with quality GPS information that will also be available when you need it on a run. Garmin is the leader in this field and produces super-high quality watch product for under $200. There "Forerunner" is possibly the best watch on the market with GPS functionality and heart rate information.

* Additional suppliers are Reebok and Nike. They also make excellent products however, for my money, I would rather buy my shoes from a company like this and stick to buying my watches with pulse rate functionality from a company that makes strictly electronics.
