Anyone know of a HRM that will alert you while actually swimming (not when standing in shallow end) if you go above or below your target zone? The Mio Fuse? I can't find a good review of someone swimming with it. All the other HRMs seem to need to be out of the water to send readings from the chest strap to the watch and have audible alarms that I know I wouldn't hear while swimming anyway.
While the Finis one does not have zones, it can tell you your hr every 10 seconds through an earphone. I've never tried it, but I have used their MP3 player that uses the same audio technology and it's pretty clear.
I have the Poolmate HR but it doesn't have an alert if you are outside the zone. It only logs it and shows it on the watch face. Since it uses a strap, I've had issues with it moving while swimming. I only use it when doing HR sets and then I use a surfing rash guard with it so the strap doesn't move.
