Instruction Tide & Time Clock
For the start up of the clock you need a battery as indicated on the movement.
The battery is not included. Insert the battery into the battery compartment. Pay
attention to the polarity (marking) „+“ / „-“.
The action of the tide is very complex and involves many factors, which must
be considered to describe the tide exactly at any given place. A computer usu-
ally does the calculations necessary for compiling the official Tide Tables. The
Tidal Clock does not claim to give you the exact time of the tides at a given
place, but it will give you the average state of the tide, which satisfies most
people needs.
The primary controller of the tides is the moon and the average duration bet-
ween two transits of the moon around the earth is 24 hours 50 minutes and
30 seconds - this is referred to as the lunar or tidal day. It means that the tidal
day - to which the tide indicating hand is geared - is 50 minutes longer than
the solar day of 24 hours. In other words, your Tidal Clock movement has four
hands - the tidal hand running 50 minutes late every 24 hours, thus indicating
the average times of the tides at a given point, the regular hour, minute and
second hand, giving you the regular time of the day. To set your Tidal Clock.
