This is what "hacking seconds" means when people describe movements.

Very helpful for the OCD out there.

Since the accuracy is probably best described as vague, I'm happy with a general indication of time. (On my SKX)

A movement with hacking seconds will stop the seconds hand when you pull out the crown.
The 7s26 does not do that, but you can achieve similar with the method I described, despite it being a non hacking movement.

My bad, I always thought it was the backwards ticking.

Everyday is a school day!
