What is the accuracy of the watch
657557
Accuracy and Precision are not the same thing. The watch is precise to 1/100 of second, butthe how close it is to and actual 1/100 I do not have the answer for you. In other words, it reads to nearest 1/100 of second, however,whether that 1/100 of a second is exactly 0.001 seconds, that I do not know, it could be 0.00099 or 0.0011 seconds...not sure.

It measures in 1/100 sec to 40 minutes. The Quartz Crystal Accuracy is 0.1 sec/hr (accuracy may vary with shock, temperature or aging of crystal). The operating temperature is 14F to 138F (-10C to 59C)

the package states 1/100 sec to 40 min, 1 sec to 24 hours, I sell to trainers of national olympic teams and pre olimpic teams ordered specially by request I believe they know what they are ordering and have a reason for doing it, and it costs much more in Mexico , havent received any complaints of mal function either

RESOLUTION & ACCURACY LIMIT: The internal Quartz and IC controller LOOKS AT SWITCH CLOSURE every 1/256th of a second, so that nearest 1/100 is captured.ACTUAL ACCURACY: Tested and calibrated to be within 0.04 sec/hour for 12 months. Only shocks and aging of the quartz crystal affect this actual accuracy rating.

As long as it reads 300 to 400 outside it gives me confidence that it is fairly accurate. And it Alway has stayed in that margin outside. In a dark room you can see the infa red pulse every few seconds and seam to adjust corispodingly. Hope that helps.

I have found mine to be very accurate, although sometimes it will be off usually about a quarter mile for a 10 miles ruen. I think it has more to do with the movement or adjustment of the satelites rather than the watch, since I have noticed on the peaks website that sometimes the course is really off and has me starting out in Lake Erie. There is not really much you can do about it and all brands pretty much use the same gps. If I am running a course for time, I always measure it by my bike or car for better accuracy. I did do a 10 mile race last fall and it showed 10.07 which was very good. Trees and turns or switchbacks can through it off as well.

Simple answer NO, I do not like this trainer watch for that reason. It has 3 sesnitivity levels and they are either off by too much distance for high sensitivity lor to little for moderate or low sensitivity. And I mean off by a LOT.

I don't know.... But watch is not worth price and is plastic junk. It stopped working and while it was speaker was junk I couldn't hear caller andccaller couldn't hear me

Yes, in as much as the built in altimeter is accurate. This is old tech, newer companies offer better products an besides, much, much more importantly other companies may offer better support. From first hand experience, Fitbit customer service is atrocious, and that is very generous!!

I don't know as I sent this back because it continually gave inaccurate readings. I bought OMRON which is very ACCURATE; both the arm and wrist give reliable readings.

I've had mine a few weeks. So far, it's been as accurate as my Garmin chest strap. I don't even strap it that tight. Feels very comfortable. I don't know if it makes a difference, but my wrist is bony.

Except a compass, not really. Those watches have a larger display(case) and are a bit tougher. The sensors are s the ame as far as i know. The price difference makes this a no brainer unless you rely need a watch with a compass.

I'm guessing you mean the pedometer? I think it works as well as pedometers in general work. I've never owned a pedometer that was 100% accurate. I bought the watch for my dad so I haven't used it myself. He hasn't complained that it doesn't work but he feels like I do, not many pedometers are accurate.

I do not use the watch feature. I find it hard enough just to use the odometer. I'm not very happy with the product.

Yes, I had no problem with it being accurate. I do a lot of country road running and I have tracked it in my car the miles are the same. :)

The watch itself won't be able to figure that. That would be up to the app that you have paired with it. If your app figures this information, is compatible with the watch, and offers a screen to display it, then it will. I know if you use the Wahoo Fitness app and a heart rate strap it will figure that information and display it for you.

Same as below, adjust the sensitivity in the set up process. It is not perfect, running on the treadmill with my watch hand holding my hair off my neck and it missed counting steps. Pretty accurate though!

I'm not 100% sure but if you looking for durability its a tough watch I have put it through hell and back and it still works perfectly with a few blemishes, face size 2" thickness little over 0.5"

You need to make sure it is tight enough on your wrist. If it's not, it won't read accurately.
