Only certain clockfaces allow you to do this (because it impacts battery life). If you search clockfaces for “always on” it will bring some up. Timebomb and Nothing Special are a couple of examples (you have to enable “always on” in the settings). RedStats is one of the faces that allows you to enable “always on” by double tapping the screen.

I would read the post by @MarreFitbit in the thread that @WendyB suggested, you might find something of interest there.

Yes @DramaQueenDiva 60 seconds should be long enough to start on.

Fitbit designed their Chronograph face to include the several functions that the medical personal have requested.

By tapping the lower right button you will activate the always on stopwatch that has both large analog and digital read outs

@Lupeh  Push the LH button and swipe RH to LH until Settings, tap that, and then tap "Display Awake" and tap until you set the maximum.... then push LH button.

If you need to close the screen view while examining a patient just put your palm over the screen of the watch or push under you other wrist.  There is a sensor there to help conserve battery.

I get about 6 days between charges wearing 24/7 with Workouts and NO GPS..  about 0.5%/hr between charges.. so you can monitor that while at work by swiping up from the clock face..

Let's know what you think..
