Does the watch pause if you stop running, say at a stoplight?

My watch does pause if I remain in one spot after about 15 seconds but it isn't always reliable. I am not sure why other people are reporting theirs do not pause. You can pause it manually fairly easily.

I have yet to pause long enough for it to matter, but so far I haven't noticed that it does. I know that it gives you the option of manually pausing it with just the press of a button, as it asks me that when I am done with my run. Sorry I haven't got better info this time around!

The watch does not pause automatically, but you can pause it manually fairly easily.

I haven't been able to pause the stopwatch mode once it started. There may be a way, but I have not stumbled upon it yet. It just rolls on. :-/

I don't believe so. I haven't left my running so a long time, but it has timed beeps which let you know when to switch zones. After the last bleep, I just power mine off.

When it is on and you're using it, you will get 4:58 with this. I used it for my long training run and for my first marathon. It shut off both times at 4:58, saving what was there. If you plan on taking longer than a 5 hour run, get a different watch.

Yes you can. When timer is running; you can push "start/stop" button once, and timer will pause, when you push "start/stop" again, it will start from where you had stopped it.

Yes. You can press Start/stop to "pause" in both count up and timer mode. From there, you can either press Clear to start over, or press Start/stop again to resume.

Yes. Soon as you hit start/stop it will reset. (I have not let it run to stop).. Still have to hit Start again. Hitting clear allows setting a new time.

Yes you can. Go to the race settings, go to options, go to cautions and black flags, and the go to left until it says off. I hope this helps.

No. The light is on while running only. This is the only thing I dislike about this unit.

It does have a stop watch function, but timer function I'm not entirely sure... Feel free to check out the official Suunto web site where you can find the full information on this watch there.

Prefer to hang around my neck to avoid having the button accidentally pushed during the flexing of my hip and squashing of the stop watch in my pocket.The lanyard could also be wrapped around your wrist if you didn't want it around your neck.Simply to answer your question, yes it will operate in your pocket while running, but you will run a risk of the button being accidentally pushed and your results lost if the stop watch happens to get squished between your pocket and skin.Hope this helps.

Hi, I have not figured out if it can "pause" it but I have figured out how to stop it in the middle of the circuit. Just hold the "start" button for 3+ seconds and it will stop the count down and restart. Hope that helps.

Yes, just his the start/stop button. It pauses. Then press it again when you are ready to go.

Yes, provided you press "stop". If you do not, it will reset to "0", although pressing "start" again will bring up your previously set time.

Yes you can stop/pause the workout. The timing counter may start over again (counting down or up depending how you have it set), however once you have your intervals set they will remain the same. If you are referring to the stopwatch, I don't know since I only use the intervals.

Yes it does count up. Just press the START half of the stop/start button. It also allows you to stop, and then resume from that time forward by pressing the Start again. Its a handy stopwatch tool.

Yes, there is an auto pause/start and you can set your own threshold. For instance, I have mine set to pause below 1mph for creeping along at stop lights.
