Asking for a tide watch for Christmas - any advice on brands or models that you guys have actually used? I have already checked out a bunch on the Internet so I am really just looking for advice from past experience......
I have a Nixon Super Hero. Looks cool. Not very user friendly though. Also have a Freestyle Tide 3.0 (my every day watch), super user friendly, simple, accurate. I wear it to work, dawn patrols, etc. Highly recommend. Not the most stylish..but most functional.
I have the Rip Curl Ocean Tide from when they first came out. Its a pretty Accurate tide watch. It has a nice bright light in it and you can have 2 tides setting in it if needed. All I have had to do to it since I got is was replace the original band and change the battery 3 years ago. The new Rip Curl watch has multiple beach tide settings in it and I heard They improved the original once which i bought like 7 years ago. They are Pricey so if you cash is tight the Nixon would be my next choice
Thanks guys- Nixon is more in the price range vs the rip curl. I'm thinking of either the lodown or the channel T but I am going to look into the freestyle 3.0 based on LOSTsoul's post. I haven't checked that one out yet....
