Minimum on-off time for digital timers is usually 1 minute.

Minimum on-off time for plug-in-type 24-hour analog timers is 1/4 hour or 1/2 hour depending on width of tripper-pin-segment.
Minimum on-off time for plug-in-type 7-day analog timer is usually 3 hours.
Plug-in vacation timers are set for random on-off and cannot be set.
Minimum on-off time for box timers with 24 hour dial and wide tripper is 1 to 1-1/2 hours
Minimum on-off time for box timers with 24 hour dial and narrow tripper is 1/4 hour.
Minimum on-off time for box timers with 7-day dial is usually 3 hours

    A timer increments should be a part of manual and advertisement, Right?

    I test timers and have not seen 'timing increments' as part of instruction manual, except with digital timers where the standard is 1 minute, excluding momentary bell-ringing and latching-contactor timers. Generally, advertisements and manuals are brief so the customer is not confused or find objection to the product. If you are looking for timer for a specific application in mind, I have extensive files and can possibly find correct timer. There are some specialized timers that can be programmed for seconds, but these are not mass-market available.
