The only reliable time source during deep sleep is the RTC with a resolution of a second. I'd say: forget saving battery and just disable the shutdown while the stopwatch is active. The battery consumption shouldn't be excessive anyway because the stopwatch doesn't need a lot of processing power.

I should've realized that your group would have already implemented something so simple if it was possible.

Maybe a flag setting to let the user decide if he wants to disable sleep mode if the stopwatch is running would be simpler.
