Time to Tide clock, Blue Face
Tides are due to the gravitational pull of the sun
and the moon on the earth's surface. Most areas of
the world have semi-diurnal tides, a high tide
approximately every 12 hours 25 minutes.
This Downeaster tide clock utilizes a battery-operated
movement that keeps lunar time relating to the movement
of the tides-12 hours 25 minutes. An easy-to-read dial
indicates time to high and low tides, as well as to the
ebbing and flooding half tides. Set this clock to
wherever you want to track the average tide cycle-for
example, your favorite beach, harbor, or fishing area.
This model has a Blue Face plate enclosed in a highly
polished Brass Case.
