Hi @denisfab - the measurements you got could be normal. The heart rate sensor can be sensitive to repetitive movements such as vibrations, rhythmic movements or clapping. My watch reads double during exercise and others complain about under reading. It just depends but it should still be quite accurate when not moving or sleeping.
