Bug Description

current situation:

When the timer is set or the stopwatch is activated, the ticker second dot moves around to indicate the seconds moving along, whilst the long hand(s) sits and moves occasionally with the minutes. The connection between the dot and the long hand(S) is a little too abstract and excessive information.

Desired solution:
Could we remove the ticker dot and use one long hand that moves with the seconds? This way we only have one item moving around, and one item to focus on.

Just to be sure, are you requesting that in timer we show only one hand that moves with the seconds? So implementation wise, for the timer, the minute and second hand would be shown while setting up a timer but when the timer is running, only one hand which moves with the second is shown.

As for the stopwatch, do I hide the hour and minute hand and show just the second hand?

Please confirm this to start on its implementation.
