Oddball theoretical watches
I don’t know if any of these exist, but I think they would offer a interesting albeit useless or minimally useful watches:
1. MoonPhase only
2. Leap year only
3. minute only
4. Quartz turbillion
5. date only?
6. Equation of time and day of week
7. calendar function that only tells you if the current month has 30 days.
what else?

A one year hand that goes around the dial once per year.
thats it. No month indices. Museum dial. One hand. “It’s about June-ish”
a mechanical movement with a 22 minute power reserve.
One-hander. With the seconds hand.
It only tells you when the time is nigh.

Looks like we have a winner!
A watch that is permanently set to UTC -12:00. It is the only time zone in the world that it is uninhabited.
