hi Ian – great video! any chance you know how to activate the hr monitor? the main time display on our TW5M48300 says “Hr OFF” instead of showing the day/month/yr. Not sure what we did to turn it off…

    Hi Sean; sorry, but I no longer have access to this watch. My girlfriend loved the watch but hated that she had to flip her wrist or touch it to have the time display so after a few weeks I exchanged it for a lower end model that does not have any of the smart features 🙁

      Ian Matthews – Hi! My Ironman Transit + watch is also displaying the “HR OFF” message instead of showing the day/month/year. I was hoping you would share the info if you have gotten it to return to normal?

        Hi Cythia – sorry, I have not – I gave this watch to my girlfriend and so I don’t touch it anymore.
