Question

Has anyone ever made a two handed watch with a jumping hour hand and an analog minutes hand? In the classic 2 handed format. Is it technically possible?

Breguet

See George Daniels' The Art of Breguet page 69 for explanation of Breguet's jump-hour system. ...

Was the minute hand hacking as well?

That is probably not what you are looking for, but there was a Dewitt tourbillion with jumping hour and minutes hands.
