With a 1024Hz square wave from the RTC, the reduction required is 128:1.
The trouble with ratchet wheels is complication - needs ratchet wheel, fixed pawl and driven pawl plus a crank arrangement. Advantage is it gives a high reduction ratio bur there are other ways of getting a high reduction ratio viz. worm gear and epicyclic gearing. I don't think a worm gear lends itself to printed plastic.
The epicyclic gear system as used in my Giant Wall Clock might be an alternative to ratchet wheel. A 64:1 ratio with 63t and 64 t gears would be rather too large with decent sized teeth but 32:1 should be doable with 31t & 32t gears and mod 3 size teeth. Dividing 128 by 32 gives 4, an easy gear ratio.
