The PoolMate was a great success and this has been built on and improved. The PoolMate2 features all the patented lap-counting technology of the first model with the addition of an open water mode to track swims in lakes, the sea or rivers.

This makes the PoolMate2 so much more than just a watch designed for swimmers, it is a complete bespoke automatic swimming computer. Simply press the Start button and begin to swim. No more forgetting your lap count and no pressing buttons at the end of each lap. The watch calculates and shows:

• Laps
• Average strokes
• Speed
• Distance
• Time
• Calories
• Efficiency

Works with all major strokes straight out of the box and no calibration is required. It will store over 100 sessions for recall, records individual sets and total session data. Works in pools over 18m and has a chrono mode for other sports.

Other features include lightweight, flexible PU strap, easy to read display, stainless steel buttons, backlight, double secure fastening, water resistant to 50m and 24 hour clock with alarm.
