Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tidal clock showing a clock face embodying our new design.

FIG. 2 is a front view of the tidal clock showing a clock face in a first tidal state.

FIG. 3 is a front view of the tidal clock showing a clock face in a second tidal state.

FIG. 4 is a front view of the tidal clock showing a clock face in a third tidal state; and,

FIG. 5 is a front view of the tidal clock showing a clock face in a fourth tidal state.

The broken lines in the drawing are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed design.

The needle on the dial on the clock face is independently moveable and several representative settings are shown, however the illustrated positions of the needle are intended to be representative of numerous possible relative needle positions depending on tidal conditions. The four tidal states depicted in FIGS. 2-5 represent different positions indicating different states of the same design.

The graphic content shown in broken lines within the window is included for the purpose of illustrating possible tide related imagery that may be displayed within the window but forms no part of the claimed design.

Claims

We claim the ornamental design for a tidal clock, as shown and described.
