Krieger Tidal Wave Chronoscope

The original Krieger Tidal Chronometer launched a revolution in marine watches. Ever since its introduction some two decades ago, it has served the needs of weekend mariners and professional sportsmen alike, becoming the most revered and imitated watch in recent maritime history. Justifiably acclaimed for its ability to accurately display the present state of the tides and to predict with uncanny precision just how many hours till the next high or low tide.

Which is why the introduction of an all new Krieger Tidal Wave ChronoscopeTM is nothing less than a momentus occasion.

Suddenly, every other watch in the category is out of its depth, a mere plaything when pitted against this new Krieger masterpiece. Immensely strong, each Tidal Wave ChronoscopeTM is hand-made in Switzerland by expert craftsmen. Its casing is machined from a solid block of stainless steel, and fitted with a double dome sapphire crystal. Anti-reflective coating adds superior optical clarity.

While the water resistances of other ordinary watches are measured in feet, the Tidal Wave is measured in miles, with a water resistance rating to almost one-half-mile (2640 feet).

The watch is boldly oversized, to make for easy reading even in a blinding gale. The large tide indicator hand rotates clockwise to indicate the state of the tide. Detailed sub-dial provides for the tidal range, neap and spring tides. Screw down pushbuttons enable the wearer to quickly set the tides and moon phase at a moment's notice. The manually rotating bezel is engraved with a solar compass.

Thoroughly masculine and a scientific and technical marvel, the Tidal Wave ChronoscopeTM is available in a wide choice of finely detailed dial treatments including multi, black, blue, yellow, white, orange and light blue. In steel bracelet or luxurious rubber strap.

The Krieger Tidal Wave ChronoscopeTM. A serious instrument for the serious sportsman.

What do you do when the buttons stop working on this watch. It's a quartz movement.
