Electronics (one directly connected UL2001 with Darlington transistors - no more or less) now works.

Shows the basic principle (and a messy work bench, but such are creative people :-) )

Various challenges

When I mounted the drive on a clockface, I noticed the minute hand seems further off than the +/-½ tooth.. Minor problem with the math (truncate vs. rounding) so I do not stop at the nearest tooth but the floor(nearest).

It seems to be one minute off. Although I can not test it at the moment, I reason it is caused by the stepper motor/circuit/count logic. I simply start with the first coil (of the 4 it has), but it may not be the coil that is aligned with the vertical. One minute is 3⅓ steps. I just need to twist the clock dial or add a start offset in the code.

Solutions made

The rounding error was tricky, the calculation became complex as all factors needed taking into account

Before
    MinuteNxt = 
         Jumble[((Minute+2)/5)%12]*Full/12 + (( T>2 )?T-5:T)*Full
            /60;
    HourNxt = 
         Jumble[Hour+(Minute>29?1:0)]*Full/12+(Minute>29?-(60-Minute):Minute)
            /12 ;

After
#define Round(Num, Den) ((Num)+(Den)/2)/(Den)
#define Positiv(Val,Wrap) ((Val)<0?((Val)+(Wrap)):(Val))
    MinuteNxt = Positiv( Round( 
         ( Jumble[((Minute+2)%60)/5]*5 + ((T>2)?T-5:T) )*Full
                            , 60), Full);
    HourNxt = Positiv( Round( 
         ( Jumble[Hour+(Minute>29?1:0)]*60L + (Minute>29?-(60-Minute):Minute) )*Full
                            , 60L*12), Full) ;

The offset is simply solved by powering on the stepper, jiggling it a little and then manualy turn the hands to the start position (they are only pressfit, so they can be turned while the motor is still)
