Great Watch
Chrono size
Comments from The Staff:
Unfortunately, changing the size of the chrono is not an option. But it's certainly a great suggestion that I will gladly pass on to the manufacturer.

Suunto t6c - Interval timers
Comments from The Staff:
Hi there, the tones are just the button tones. When you push a button it beeps or it doesn't. The timers are different. Check out page 24 of the manual: 4.2 Using Timers; Interval Timer: Interval timer enables you to set and follow different timed intervals.
This function is useful in timing intervals between your periods of
activity and rest. In addition to alerting at selected time intervals,
your Suunto t6c records lap information for each interval.
To set the timers follow these steps:
1. In the settings menu, enter TRAINING.
2. Scroll to TIMERS with [Lap +] and [Light -] and enter with [Mode].
3. Scroll through the timers with [Lap +] and [Light -] and select a
timer with [Mode]. IN THIS CASE PLEASE CHOOSE "INTERVAL"
4. Set the timer on or off with [Lap +] and [Light -] and accept with
[Mode].
5. Change the values with [Mode].
6. Press [Start Stop] to exit.
If that doesn't work the "speaker" in the watch might be broken. Please check with other alarms (daily alarms or tones) if that's the case. Always feel free to contact our Customer Service Department at 800-891-8490 with any other questions.
Thank you,
