Boasting the allure of elegant watch styling and the timelessness of classic clock design, the Polaris Collection is a true work of art. This extraordinary series features a subtle contrasting matte and frosted silver dial adorned with bold cobalt blue numerals, as well as a traditional screw bezel with handsome beveled glass.
In the tradition of fine nautical timekeeping, the 4.5" Polaris Tide Hour Clock shows the state of the local tide (after local adjustment; consult local tide tables). Its dial features 6-hour separated markings for "High Tide" and "Low Tide," with cobalt blue enamel markings for the hours until the next tidal shift. Tide status is indicated by the position of bold blue sports-style hand.
The Polaris Collection also includes the Polaris Nautical Barometer and the Polaris Nautical Clock.
Chelsea Clock Company (Boston, MA) is the oldest clock manufacturer in the U.S, with a lineage dating to 1884. Chelsea's clocks and barometers, featuring forged brass casings and precision internal movements, are prized by mariners and collectors alike. Their intrinsic quality caused the US Navy to rely on Chelsea clocks for their ships during World War II and since.
