             TIDE CLOCK

            How does the Tide Clock operate:
            The moon has the major influence that causes the tidal changes to advance every day.
            The position of the sun and local land masses also has some affect on our tides. The time it takes for the moon to orbit the earth is approximately 24hrs, 50mins and it is this time that we have geared into the mechanism to operate the Blue Tide Hand in the movement. The blue tide hand will track the moon’s orbit and so we are able to approximately predict the tides. The tide time differences between all of the ports have been calculated to predict the high tides before and after the major port in your region. This information can generally be found in your daily newspaper or in local tide tables but we have worked it out for you and display this information on our clock faces together with a Nautical Chart of your region.

            The Small Porthole clock has a mounting flange diameter of 140mm, a depth from front to back of 45mm and the face diameter is 82mm.
             

             BAROMETER

            We are able to offer our customers a Barometer that matches the Brass Porthole and Chrome Porthole models of our Tide Clock range.
            The pair can be mounted together and
            will compliment each other making
            a unique nautical weather station.
            The dimensions of the Barometers
            are exactly the same as the Tide Clocks.
            Please note that due to air pressures changes in Altitude all barometers need to be adjusted only when they are in their permanently installed position.
