If one were designing "analog" watch which was accurate enough to make
the display of leap
seconds worthwhile, and if it stepped quickly from one second to the
next, I think
the right approach would be to (1) provide a separate scale for the
second hand,
which has 61 seconds and (2) for the vast majority of minutes, jump suddenly
from second 59 to second 0 without stopping on second 60.
Of course, such a watch would not really be analog, it would be digital
with the display
being by means of hands rather than Arabic numerals.
