Isn't the moon phase/tide info the whole point of his watch.. so how is yours the same?

@waricle Pretty neat watch

It does tide info

I have a Garmin for recording GPS and speed data :)

I looked for an analogue tide watch for years. That's cool

Another one for you mad by Tag in the 50's

^^^ it is missing the distinctive "cracked glass face" that most of them ended up with....

I doubt this thread needs moving to "gps and speed talk" section....

It's only time

My trusty old tide watch

The ladies version, bought in 2004 and still going strong......although I need too change the date

Men's version somewhere around 2004 and still going strong. Worn all day every day pretty much

A little late to the party but I just got a classic Casio digital 50m "fashion watch". Specifically says "no windsurfing...". For real. Hahaha. Then looked at the one I've been learning while wearing- so spending most of my time IN the water, and it's only a 50m too. Seems fine after 6 months of surfing, showers, heated pools and beginner windsurfing. Does that mean that the new retro Cassio would be fine too? Figured I'd just ask some real water-people. Cheers!

Yes and maybe, yes Heuer made all the watches but I think Tag although owned by an Arab is actually a Luxembourg company. Lvmh owns tag Heuer now.

If you can think of it, it exists:

That's the PRO app, though. I think you have to be a PROfessional or some marketing... seriously why do they do that? Add "PRO" to the names of things? "Playstation PRO". Are there really professional playstation players, that require a pro model? Really?

Anyway, I like to derive the tide by the moon phase, more so if I can actually see the moon.

Or, the tide is simply the opposite of last weekend, minus 1 hour.

I don't own a watch, but some of the above look very, very nice. Thanks for posting. I might even get one.

Looks like the same movement though I prefer your colour as it is easier to read the tide dials.

Cool!

Rip Curl watches have always lasted pretty well for me and are priced quite reasonably. I'm surprised how many watersports watches have glass that sits proud of the bezel... I've always ended up smashing those in a wipeout.
