Important Note: Your Wenger Tide watch should be used for recreational  
purposes only. It is not intended to be a navigational tool.  
Your Tide Watch  
Your Wenger Tide Watch is accurate for the Atlantic Ocean tides only. It will not  
accurately track tides for other oceans.  
About Tides  
Your Wenger Tide watch measures lunar tides which are created by the attrac-  
tion of the Earth and the moon. The moon pulls at water causing oceans to con-  
stantly move. As the moon travels around the earth and they travel around the  
sun, the combined gravitational forces cause the world’s oceans to rise and fall.  
Your Wenger Tide Watch is capable of tracking tides in two locations, a home  
(primary) and a destination (secondary) port, as an example.  
The Tide Indicator hand (see page 3) tracks the progress of the Tide for both the  
primary and secondary tides. It will make one revolution approximately every  
12 hours and 25 minutes (the approximate time between the two high tides  
and two low tides each day).  
The Earth makes one full axis revolution every 24 hours yet it takes the Moon  
29 days to make one revolution around The Earth. As a result, it takes approxi-  
mately 24 hours and 50 minutes for the moon to align with the same location  
on Earth.  
The progress of the tide for your primary location can be read on the Primary  
Tide Indicator (the inner ring closest to the center of the watch dial), with High  
Tide at the 12:00 position and Low Tide at the 6:00 position. The progress of the  
tide for your secondary location can be read on the Bezel/Secondary Tide  
Indicator (the rotatable outer ring of the watch).  
Approximately twice a day, powered by the moon’s attraction, the oceans swell  
toward coastlines, reach their crest, and then begin to recede once more. These  
ebbs and flows cause two High and two Low tides approximately every day.  
For more information on Tides, we suggest researching the internet.

The numerals in the inner ring (primary tide indicator)  
indicate the approximate number of hours until the  
respective tides (example at right: the Tide Indicator Hand  
is pointing to the number “2” in the blue field, indicating  
that there are approximately 2 hours until High Tide in  
the primary location). The numerals on the bezel provide  
the same function for the secondary location.

Setting the Time and Date  
We suggest that you set your Wenger Tide Watch in the following order:  
Important note: Your watch features a screw-down crown which ensures water  
resistance. Rotate the crown counterclockwise until the crown moves away from  
the watch. This will set the crown in Position 1. Always screw down the crown  
after making any adjustments. This is very important.  
1. Date  
2. Time  
3. Moon Phase  
1. Pull out the crown to Position 2 (one “click” out). Rotate crown clockwise  
4. Primary Tide Location  
5. Secondary Tide Location (when desired)  
until the date shows one day earlier than the date you want to set.  
2. Pull out the crown to Position 3 (two “clicks” out). Rotate crown so the watch  
hands move clockwise until the current date shows. Then set the watch  
hands to the correct time. Turn the watch hands past 12 once if you’re set-  
ting the watch for a P.M. time.

Setting the Moon Phase  
Setting the Primary Tide  
Important Note: It is recommended that you set the Moon Phase during a Full  
Moon in your local area. Setting the Moon Phase Indicator by estimating may  
cause inaccuracies. For practical purposes you may approximate the phase of the  
moon and set the watch accordingly but always recalibrate at a full moon.  
Important Note: It is recommended that you set the Tide Indicator Hand at  
exactly High Tide or exactly Low Tide in your local area.  
Read the “Your Tide Watch” section on pages 5 and 6, and refer to the General  
Features and Components illustration on page 3 for more information on the  
Primary Tide indicators.  
1. Refer to a Moon Phase chart from newspapers, the  
Full moon

Reading the Primary Tide  
Setting the Secondary Tide  
1. Once the Tide Indicator Hand is set as detailed above, you can begin tracking  
the tide in your primary location (Read the “Your Tide Watch” section on  
page 5 and refer to the General Features and Components illustration on  
page 3 for more information on the Primary Tide indicators.)  
Important Note: It is recommended that you set the Secondary Tide at exactly  
High Tide or exactly Low Tide.  
Read the “Your Tide Watch” section on page 5 and refer to the General Features  
and Components illustration on page 3 for more information on the Secondary  
Tide indicators.  
2. The Tide Indicator hand will rotate at a rate of approximately 12 hours and  
25 minutes. Over this period of time the watch will indicate one High Tide  
and one Low Tide per location for your primary location.  
1. Once the Tide Indicator Hand is set at your primary location you are ready to  
set the tide for a secondary location (a destination port as an example).  
3. When the Tide Indicator Hand is in the blue zone (left side of the dial) the  
tide is rising or “flooding”. When its in the red zone (right side of the dial)  
the tide is falling or “ebbing”.  
2. Refer to a Tide Chart for the second location and determine High or Low Tide  
for today.  
3. At exactly High Tide or exactly Low Tide at the second location rotate the  
bezel (counterclockwise) so that the Tide Indicator Hand (red hand) points to  
the appropriate tide.  
4. The numerals (4 and 2) in both the blue and red zones indicate the approxi-  
mate number of hours before the next High Tide and Low Tide respectively.  
The vertical lines within these zones indicate interval hours relative to the 4  
and 2.  
Important Note: While the above is the most accurate way to set the Tide for  
the second location it may not always be practical. See section “Alternate  
Method for Setting the Secondary Tide” (page 13) for a more practical, but less

Reading the Secondary Tide  
Alternate Method for Setting the Secondary Tide  
1. Once the Tide Indicator Hand is set for the primary location and the bezel is  
set for the secondary location, you can begin tracking the tide in your sec-  
ondary location (Note the illustration on page 3 which shows the secondary  
location High and Low tide indicators on the bezel).  
Important Note: While the following method may be the most practical way to  
set the Tide for the second location it is not the most accurate. See “Setting the  
Secondary Tide” (page 11) for the most precise method for setting the second tide.  
1. Once the High/Low Tide Indicator is set at your home location you can set the  
2. The tide in the secondary location should be read solely from the markings  
on the bezel. The tide indicator hand will indicate two High and two low  
tides in approximately a 24 hour and 50 minute period.  
High/Low Tide Indicator at a second location (a destination port, for example).  
2. Refer to a Tide Chart for the secondary location and determine High Tide for  
today.  
3. Note that four triangles on the bezel are blue and four are red. As well there  
are blue numerals (4 and 2), and red numerals (4 and 2). When the Tide  
Indicator hand is between the blue triangles or blue numerals, the tide is  
rising. When its between the red triangles or red numerals the tide is falling.  
3. Determine the difference in hours and minutes between High Tide at the pri-  
mary location and High Tide at the secondary location.  
4. Rotate the bezel so that the High Tide indicator (on the bezel) is positioned to  
reflect the difference between the High Tide in the primary location and High  
Tide in the secondary location in minutes and hours. (example: if the High Tide  
in the primary location is 7:34 and the High Tide in the second location is 8:34,  
(continues on next page)  
4. Both the red and the blue numerals (4 and 2) indicate the approximate num-  
ber of hours before the next High Tide and Low Tide respectively. The trian-  
gles indicate interval hours relative to the 4s and 2s.

set the High Tide indicator on the bezel 1 hour ahead of the Tide Indicator  
hand).  
3-Year Limited Warranty  
Wenger is proud to stand by our quality Swiss craftsmanship with a 3-Year  
Limited Warranty. This Wenger watch is warranted to the original consumer/  
purchaser against breakage or malfunction under normal use due to defects in  
material or workmanship. This 3-Year Limited Warranty also includes all  
components and craftsmanship of the Swiss movement and watch case. We will  
repair, or at our option, replace any defective Wenger watch with the same or  
comparable model. We will refund the purchase if repair or replacement is not  
commercially possible. The warranty will become null and void if the timepiece  
is misused, abused, tampered with or taken apart, or if the timepiece is  
repaired by anyone other than an authorized dealer. The warranty is not extend-  
ed to the watch strap, bracelet, finish, crystal or battery. The warranty does not  
cover any incidental, consequential or special damage arising from any or all  
uses of the Wenger watch. Wenger watches must be repaired by an authorized  
dealer or the warranty is void. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limita-  
tions of incidental, consequential or special damages, so the above limitations  
may not apply.  
Important Note: Again, this is not an exact setting of the second tide. This  
method should only be used when an estimated tide in a secondary location is  
required. It is suggested that any necessary adjustments be made at exactly  
High Tide or Low Tide at the secondary location.  
5. At exactly High Tide or exactly Low Tide at the second location rotate the  
bezel (counterclockwise) so that the Tide Indicator Hand (red hand) points to  
the appropriate tide (either exactly High Tide or exactly Low Tide).  
For more information on Tides, we suggest researching the internet.  
Caring for Your Watch  
Even though your watch is water-resistant, it is not recommended that you wear it  
in a hot shower, sauna or hot tub. We suggest sending your Wenger watch to  
our Customer Service Center for battery replacement (please see procedure  
under “Warranty Service”). Batteries should only be replaced by a professional  
jeweler to maintain the watch’s water-resistancy. If your watch has a bracelet,  
we suggest you see a jeweler for any sizing adjustments.
