No idea, but only the first version of AnimWatch has this problem.

The second version (only about a month newer) is nice and smooth, the
watch hand doesn't keep pointing back to 12 o'clock whenever the
program calls WaitCursor, and it works on a ROM 03 with System 6
without causing frequent system crashes.
