The minute hand of my analogue watch face does not move each minute on my S7 when AoD is turned on. The difference is quite huge. It can be stuck at 2:05 when reality its 2:11. Is this a bug or is this working by design?

It's been a bug for too long unfortunately. It varies for no reason, my S6 seems to only lag a few minutes but it still lags. I notice it when the screen dims and I haven't raised to look at the device for awhile. When the screen brightens the minute hands advances to the proper time.. Pretty annoying as it doesn't do it on the non analog faces..

Dang that’s pretty lame from Apple. I guess I’ve to jump to a digital watch face then.

I’ve seen this bug on digital faces too. But it’s not consistent. Sometimes it appears but sometimes it doesn’t.
 
been around for a couple years now. seems to vary by watch face used. On infograph I don't recall seeing more than a couple minutes lag though I've not specifically really ever looked for it.
