You're correct. When I first looked at the watch, I thought I saw a seconds hand, but it was the shadow of the minute hand in the photo. I first thought it was odd to have the jumping counter while there's a seconds hand (which there isn't).

Hamilton is owned by Swatch Group, so it's a quality piece for the money. Swatch owns a ton of big name watches, not to mention ETA movements.
