bezel and show remaining time until impending sunrise or sunset. Only one
indicator can be used at a time. To simplify the reading, the inner bezel has
a dark coloration on the sunset side in opposition to a lighter coloration
on the sunrise side.

clockwise [P2] until reaching the desired time.The inner bezel works as a
passive indicator and will not move without the wearer's intervention. It needs
to be adjusted according to the predicted sunrise or sunset time.

6.19 High / Low Tides Indicator

Tides cause water to move, uncovering and covering parts of the marine
depths. The tide indicator allows following the times of high and low tides
during a period of 14 days by adjusting the indication with both the outer
bezel and the inner bezel. The inner bezel lists the days of the week, while
the outer bezel indicates the high and low tides. Together, they point out
the times of high and low tides for a period of two weeks.
Assuming today is Monday, with a high tide at 10:30am. To set the indicator,
use the crown to place the hands at the time of today's high tide (10:30am).
Turn the outer bezel counter clockwise to move the inner 2-week ring until
today's day (Monday) lines up perfectly with the hour hand. There are two
Mondays on the ring, either one will work. Turn the outer bezel clockwise
until the triangular mark underneath the wordings "HIGH TIDE" aligns
with the small marking below MON, then the indication of the low tide is
shown to be at around 4:30pm. On Tuesday, turn the outer bezel clockwise
until the "HIGH TIDE" wordings align with the small marking below TUE.
This step needs to be repeated daily. By setting today's high tide indicator,
the other markings automatically fall into places. For our example, it means
that the high tides on Tuesday will happen at approximately 11am and 11pm.
