If you're looking for more to add: ticking second hands have momentum. How about having the ticking hand go beyond the proper place by a degree, then snap back into proper position?


You're literally describing the worst thing about the quartz watches. The best of them (aka most expensive) go to really great lengths to not have any momentum. Why would you want to have it when not needed?


because it's fun


I'm gonna test this out how it looks, not promising anything!

It's as horrible as I expected it to be, great work!

Consider other hideous features, like having the second hand miss the marks because of its "weight" - so a bit forward at 3, a bit back at 9, gradually disappearing toward 6 and 12.


That weight really makes it look like our kitchen clock, but sure it will not look like expensive clock. That feature sure will divide opinions I think.
