Thanks mackrackit,

My question was more about to understand how to trigger the time (seconds) change to start a display update or refresh.

I was thinking about putting the PIC in low-power mode until the next second change happens; how to achieve this the best way?

So is there any particular specification of RTC chips that will allow one to find a modell having, for example, a functionality setting a bit or a flag telling the second has changed?

BTW, here is the code (multiple sources - thanks to All of them) I work on now for my tests:
