Digital watch face with seconds displayed?

I have been looking at getting an Apple Watch but have a question that I haven't been able to get a satisfactory answer to at The Apple Store. I am required to wear a watch with my job however, I NEED a digital face (not an analog dial) and I need it to display the seconds as they count. I can't find one in the current WatchOS version. Am I missing it? Does anyone know if WatchOS 2 will allow me to do this? If someone knows for sure, could you please provide a picture of the screen for me to see. I haven't been able to find an answer to this online. I know, its a stupid little issue but it is what work requires. Thanks everyone in advance. Please I hope so I can purchase an Apple Watch.

Would have been Nice if they make more watch faces With Seconds, one With more standard look, no Activity displays. Big help for those who need Seconds views specially for Healthcare workers

The "Atomic Clock" app by Awyse has terrible reviews and like the reviews stated it doesn't work on my iPhone but the Apple Phone app part does work and I can display the digital time with digital seconds on my Apple Phone. By the way, if you want an "Atomic Clock" for your iPhone, I found the best one was "Atomic Clock" by Compulab and I believe it was free (once you download it the "Get" or the price turns to "Open").

I'm not sure if you still care about this, but the new Apple Watch Series 2 does have a face with a digital clock that shows seconds. It's called the "Activity Digital" watch face.


You can see an image of it on the link below. It works great! It's probably my favorite face.


I think this is related to watchOS3 instead of the specific Apple Watch model, too. So even older watches probably have it now.
