A tide clock follows the lunar cycle in addition to the time: a red hand shows the state of the tide between high and low water, allowing you to plan your departure or coastal walk without a table. The Endurance II features a quartz movement, a white dial with black Arabic numerals, and a brass case with a porthole bezel, which allows you to adjust it from the front. This Endurance II 135 has a 127 mm dial in a 178 mm case.
What time it is and the state of the tide, readable on a single brass dial.
For those living by tidal waters, this is the clock you will look at most often, as it answers two questions at once. The 135 is easiest to read from a distance; for a cabin, the 115 is often more convenient.

• How does a tide clock work?
A tide clock tracks the lunar cycle and shows the timing of high or low tide. The hand at the top indicates high tide. The hand at the bottom indicates low tide. The hand moves continuously, so you can see whether the tide is rising or falling.
• Do I need to set the tide clock?
Yes, you need to set the tide clock once for the tides in your current region. You can do this by synchronizing the clock with a local high tide. After this, the clock will automatically follow the tidal pattern. So, if you sail to a different region, you will need to synchronize the clock again at your destination.
• How can I set the tide clock?
Thanks to the front opening of this tide clock, it is easy to open it, and there are 2 gears on the back of the movement. The large gear is for the tide indicator, and the small gear is for setting the time.
• Is the tide clock moisture-resistant?
To protect the tide clock's electronics and housing, we recommend keeping the clock out of humid environments as much as possible. The cabin or a dry spot in the house are ideal locations, perfect for adding a nautical atmosphere to your interior.
• How do I replace the battery of my quartz clock?
Thanks to the front opening of this tide clock, it is easy to replace the battery yourself. Be especially careful to remove the battery at the end of the season if the tide clock is hanging on your boat during the winter to prevent leakage.
• Can I use a tide clock indoors?
Yes, a tide clock is ideal for indoor use and always provides relevant information, even if you keep it at home. Once the clock is set for your area, you can easily read when it is high tide and low tide. This is convenient so you can depart with your boat at the right time or plan activities on the coast.
• Is there a warranty on the tide clock?
Yes, Weems & Plath provides a limited lifetime warranty. This covers defects not caused by external influences or improper use, including issues with the operation of the movement.
• Time display: Standard 12-hour clock with second hand
• Calibration may be required more frequently for other tidal regions such as the Pacific Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico
• Finish: Maintenance-free, ultra-hard brass coating that is tarnish-resistant and weather-resistant
