When the watch face is inactive, works fine but the seconds hand freezes when the face is active. It does appear to move but just not in real time i.e. it does move but the hand is static.

Did a power cycle and reboot as well but the issue persists and happens inconsistently.

Anyone else have a similar experience? Probably a software bug I suspect……
 
The correct function is when wrist is raised the third hand sweeps fluidly around and when dimmed it 'ticks' as the screen refreshes at 1Hz when in AOD mode.

Is this what you're seeing? Working as it should if so.

Yes. When the face is dimmed, it’s as you describe it. When active it sometimes freezes and won’t move unless I let it go back to inactive and when I activate the face again, I can see that the seconds hand is still frozen but HAS moved.
 
Yeah, defo a bug then. Does the little version do it also if you roll the crown upwards or double tap your fingers?

You've tried rebooting, tried deleting the face and remaking? If made on watch, try on phone's Watch app or vice versa.
Very strange.
