Beach Time Tide Clock- Blue Crab Tide Clock

Beach Time Tide Clock- Blue Crab Tide Clock Keep track of the tides in your local area with this clock! • Please note that this clock is not intended to keep track of the actual time, ONLY the tide levels. PLEASE NOTE; • Variables such as wind, atmospheric pressure, the position of the moon, and the elliptical pattern of the sun will affect the tide. These variables affect the tide least at the time of the full moon. The time of the full moon/new moon are usually the best times to set your tide clock. • It is normal to experience some slight variations, however they typically average out. By the next full moon, your tide clock will more accurately depict the correct time. • Tide fluctuations (high/low tide) vary from one location to another. High and low tides vary between 12 and 13 hours. For this reason, the clock will show average values only – not exact values. • The tide hand will have some play to it and seem loose. This allows for proper rotation of the hand. As long as the hand is not dangling freely, and a new battery has been inserted, your tide clock will run as intended. *If your tide clock is left unattended for a long period of time, please remove the battery. *Do not set the tide time by manually turning the hand. Use the dial on the back of the mechanism. Failing to do so will break your mechanism. All clocks are made to order in my studio in rural Ohio. 3 sizes are available. Only the best quartz clock movements are used. The clocks are tested for 24hrs before they are shipped. 1-AA battery  is required (Not included) Production Process- Clocks are produced with fade resistant inks. The artwork is carefully mounted onto a laser cut, 1/4" thick MDF panel. A special UV resistant coating is applied for a durable finish. Dependable quartz clock movements are used. Clock hands are aged to match the antique vintage look of the clock.
