Polar M51 and M52 Heart Rate Monitors

The M51 and M52 heart rate monitors are identical except for the color of the watch casing. That said, the M51 and M52 are excellent fitness tools that combine exercise guidance with valuable information about your workout. A sophisticated, built-in heart rate zone test, automatically determines and guides you to the safest and most effective heart rate zone. A calorie counter will help you manage your weight loss program by letting you know how many calories you burned. The Polar M51 and M52 will also tell you how efficient your workout was by tracking the time you exercised in your heart rate zone, your zone settings and your average heart rate.
The Polar M51 and M52 tracks your total exercise time and the total amount of calories you burned for your current and previous workouts. Sophisticated electronics even tell you how many of your calories burned came from fat and how many from carbohydrates.
The Polar M51 and M52 share all of the same features as the M21 and M22. In addition, the M51 and M52 allow you to have heart rate settings and storage files for two users. A sophisticated and easy to use aerobic fitness test is also included. The M51 and M52 make it easy and rewarding to track your fitness improvements.

Polar M51 and M52 features:
  • The M51 and M52 allow two for two users. Separate heart zone settings and storage files are maintained for each user. This is ideal for sharing a heart monitor with your partner.
  • A sophisticated and easy to use aerobic fitness test is included. The numerical results of this test Polar calls OwnIndex™. You may use the numerical results to accurately chart and judge your fitness progress.
  • The Polar M52 heart rate monitor pictured above, shows a time of 6:28 and 1 second. On the bottom of the display it shows an OwnIndex™ numerical value of 61. This number will change as you get fitter. A detailed chart comes with the M51 and M52 which explains OwnIndex™ in greater detail.
  • The M51 and M52 heart rate monitors are identical except for the color of the watch casing.
  • The Polar M51 and M52 are personal fitness managers. A sophisticated and easy to use OwnZone™, heart rate zone test, listens to your heart while you are warming up and then chooses the safest and most effective heart rate zone settings for you.
  • The Polar M51 and M52 will automatically calculate how many calories are burned from fat and how many are burned from carbohydrates. The M51 and M52 are ideal tools for any weight loss program.
  • Both monitors will keep track of your exercise time and the total amount of calories you burned for your current and previous workouts.
  • The slim, LCD screen display depicts current heart rate in .24 inch (.6 cm) tall, bold numbers. The above photos show a heart rate of 142 beats per minute and an elapsed exercise time of 7 minutes and 40 seconds. The runner icon indicates that an exercise session is in progress.
  • An audible alarm can be activated that will tell you when you go below or above your heart zone settings. We recommend staying within your heart zone settings to get the best workout.
  • The M51 and M52 have an exercise reminder. Three days after your last exercise, a randomly selected, gentle exercise reminder appears every full hour in the display.
  • Both heart rate monitors have a full function watch display that shows:
    time of day in 12 or 24 hour modes, day of the week, date and an audible alarm.
  • The monitor head uses a standard, CR 2032 watch battery, that is easy to replace by a jeweler or electronic technician. The battery usually lasts for two years.

More M51 and M52 features:
  • Your average heart rate, time spent exercising, time spent in your heart rate zone, heart zone limits, calories burned and percentage of calories from fat are saved for the last session.
    Total time spent exercising and total amount of calories burned are saved for every session as cumulative totals. Those totals can quickly grow and make a wonderful, motivational tool. Use the M51 and M52 numbers to compare sessions and chart your fitness progress.
  • The LCD display lights up at the touch of a button. Ideal for night exercise. The light automatically shuts off after 5 seconds to conserve battery power.
  • The soft, no-slip watch band fits wrists from 5.4 inches (14 cm) to 7.9 inches (20 cm) in circumference.
  • The sealed, lightweight and slim, chest transmitter is comfortable to wear and never requires maintenance. The soft, brushed polyester elastic strap will fit chests from 25 to 51 inches (53 to 130 cm). You may purchase an XL elastic strap to fit 29 to 60 inch (73 to 152 cm) chests from our Heart Rate Monitor Accessories page.
  • The chest transmitter battery is designed to last for 6 years if you use the monitor for one hour every day.
  • Water Resistant to 30 Meters (100 feet). Do not push any monitor buttons under water as some seepage may occur.

Branford Bike Online Catalog - Archival Edition
brought to you by the former owner of Branford Bike, Tim Brockett via his personal web site, TimsLife.Com
This is an archival edition of the Branford Bike web site from February 2006. Complete with product photos, prices, how to articles and technical specifications it is a treasure trove of accurate, detailed and historical information.

In July of 2006 Branford Bike was incinerated by a huge forest fire. No one was hurt but the inventory and buildings were completely destroyed. I witnessed the fire and stayed until the trees were burning in my driveway. At that point I hiked from Branford Bike, through the smoke and embers, down the mountain to my Jeep 3 miles away. I took photos and wrote about the harrowing experience so everyone could see what I saw. My insurance was generous and I later rebuilt my home and started another business selling books. Read the story here.

Branford Bike was a huge part of my life for over 30 years; June 1976 to July 2006. I enjoyed those years tremendously and Branford Bike was often a labor of love. I hope you enjoy browsing through the archival catalog. If your visit brings back pleasant memories please share them with me via e-mail at timbrockett@gmail.com .

If you find any printed Branford Bike catalogs, advertisments or flyers please scan them as a PDF and email. Or you may mail them via US Post to Tim Brockett, PO Box 1711, Emigrant, MT 59027. Eventually I will post them in a Memorabilia catalog section.

Many Thanks and Best Wishes,
Tim Brockett
