Had this for a few weeks now. Works perfectly. Amazing how it knows when you finish your length and counts up the laps. I only swim with breast stroke or front crawl though. I've even mixed up a single lap with both strokes (which your not supposed to do as it can confuse the watch's algorithm) but it still knew how many strokes/laps i did.
This watch LOOKS awesome. I am a reasonable novice swimmer and have for the last 2 months been visiting the pool average 5 times a week, so I've been trying to log my swims on my pc. Trouble is, it can be really difficult to monitor how many laps you have just swam, let alone how many strokes each length took, so to see if I'm improving it can be tricky. This looks a God send and should help me log my results to no end... so i've just ordered one and will let you know how I get on with it soon.
The watch counts complete stroke cycles, this is each time the hand you are wearing the watch on completes a stroke. The watch has no way of knowing what your other arm is doing. This does average out to 10 strokes per lap (we think of a lap as being the same as a length).

Lisa, in this video you imitated swimming 2 laps, 4 lengths, right? And your strokes were 18, 15,11, and 9. How is the average 9 then?

Hope this explains it.
