   I guess the only downside is the minutes in the middle of each hour will feel like they are going slower since the end of the hand isn't moving as fast?

   honestly though who cares about those minutes? I want HD time at the start and end of the hour!

     Honestly, I think this would be easier to read than a traditional clock.

     What's that? Figuring out a mechanism so each hand spins at the end of the previous one? Eh, not my problem :p

     Why hasn't anybody made an epicycle clock yet? (yes there are clocks with epicyclic mechanisms, but I mean the display!)

     For your consideration, one with just an hour and a minute epicycle, and also one with a seconds epicycle just for fun.
