ActionScript 2.0 :: Rotate MC 1 Degree At A Time For 360 Degrees?

I have a cross shape that on button release I need to rotate clockwise 1 degree at a time for 360 degrees, stopping at each 90 degree point. Then continuing from that point when the button is released again, when the button has been clicked 4 times the cross will have made a complete circle. This needs to be available at all times

The catch is, I also need it to do the exact same thing counter clockwise from the release of another button at all times.

So for example imagine a stopwatch with 60 seconds, when one button is released the second hand starts counting clockwise 1 second at a time til it reaches 15 seconds then it stops.

Then when the same button is clicked again it starts from 15 seconds and goes to 30 seconds and stops, then on to 45 when the button is clicked and so on back to its original state at the 0 second point. Then there is another button that makes it go backwards from wherever it currently is for 15 seconds back.
