Our 10″ Aviator Style Wall Clocks are made to closely portray primary cockpit flight instruments. Each clock features the actual shape of an aircraft instrument and a replicated dial. Measurements are 10″ Square x 1 3/4″ Depth. These clock movements require a quality brand name or high alkaline battery. Always check to ensure battery is placed in the cradle correctly (+ to + and – to -) and then give it a slight ‘roll’ to ensure contact is made.

No pilot can resist the charms of this innovative Artificial Horizon Wall Clock. This fun piece is a perfect option if you’re looking for a conversation-starter to hang in your home, office, or wherever you and friends gather. This clock features a design that mimics a real artificial horizon instrument, straight out of the cockpit and right onto your wall. Perfect for pilots, this clock is also ideal for and aviation enthusiasts as well as anyone who revels in the concept of flight.

How Time & Tide Clocks Work Tides are the rise and fall of ocean waters caused by the gravitational forces mainly between the Earth and the Moon (the Sun also generates tidal forces, but they are much smaller). These forces cause the oceans to stretch towards and away from the moon, forming two tidal bulges. The Earth rotates through these two tidal bulges causing two HIGH tides and two LOW tides every Lunar day. A Lunar day is 24 hours and 50 minutes long. This is longer than a solar day (24 hours) because the Moon revolves around the Earth in the same direction as the Earth rotates. It takes a little longer until the Moon is over the same position. Since the Moon has the greatest effect on the tides, ALL tide clocks are synchronized to the Lunar day and will indicate a HIGH tide every 12 hours and 25 minutes (two times per Lunar day). Think of it this way: A standard clock, set for your location, displays 12:00 when the Sun is directly overhead (noon), OR on the direct opposite side of the Earth (midnight). A Tide clock, set for your location, displays HIGH TIDE when the Moon is directly overhead OR on the direct opposite side of the Earth. Many factors can influence if you will experience the brightest time of day at 12:00 noon on your standard clock. Similarly, many factors can influence if you will experience the highest water of the day at HIGH TIDE on your Tide clock. One of these factors is that the large continental land masses interfere with the Westward travel of the tidal bulge and this causes many complex tidal cycles,especially on the West coast of North America. Ocean floor topography, bays and narrow inlets can cause resonance effects and even weather conditions can alter the timing of the tidal cycle. For these reasons, Tide clocks will be more accurate in some areas than others. The red outlined areas on the map are where you can expect to receive accurate tide information.

Recreate the excitement of the cockpit in your home or office with this Altimeter Wall Clock. This clock looks just like a scaled-up version of an altimeter, although it’s actually a functional timepiece that will add a touch of aviation whimsy to your space. Its construction features a high-impact polystyrene case with a glass lens and a quartz clock movement for accuracy. This clock runs on one AA-sized battery, and it is perfect for anyone who loves to fly or appreciates the lore of aviation.
