- We are now taking Pre-orders for this beautiful Tide Clock design showing Brighton's famous Palace Pier. Get one of the first ever made with either a 10% discount on the full price or a 50% deposit now, and the balance due before delivery.
- If we secure enough Pre-orders for production to go ahead, we plan to have your new clock made, in a frame colour of your choice, for delivery in November.
- Anyone who places a Pre-order can submit images of themselves or their family or loved ones to be included in the hand-drawn artwork that will go into all the Brighton Pier clocks.
-
The Brighton Pier Tide Clock will work in the same way as our regular Tide Clocks, accurately keeping track of the day's Tides, like a regular tide clock does, just in a more expressive way. (You can learn more how our Tide Clocks work here.)
- All our clocks are made with love at our workshop in Hampshire, UK.
- FREE shipping within the UK, EU and USA. For deliveries to Ireland and the rest of the EU, all post-Brexit custom charges are paid for by Bramwell Brown - so there are no unexpected costs or delays whatsoever.
- Your Pre-order options:
- To secure one of the first Brighton Tide Clocks we ever make, and have you or your family immortalised in the artwork, you have two options when selecting your preferred frame colour above:
- Option 1: Place a 50% deposit with the remainder due prior to delivery in December.
- Option 2: Secure a 10% discount off the usual price by paying upfront today.
- What happens then?
- After either option, we’ll then contact you to discuss what it is you have in mind to have added into the artwork, asking for suitable photos to work from. After agreeing those details, we will keep you updated with the progress of printing and assembly of your clock!
- What if enough people don’t place an order?
- Both of the pre-order options will be fully refunded (with a £50 Bramwell Brown Giftcard on top) in the unlikely event of us not securing enough orders from your fellow Brighton voters, meaning we can’t go forwards with printing and assembly in 2024 (or maybe ever).
- Clever electro-mechanical design
- The scenery updates every 30 minutes to keep track of the average moving tide. Like all Tide Clocks, it is set to work on a semi-diurnal timer of 12 hours 25 minutes and 15 seconds between high tides. Just set the Clock to 'High Tide' when your favourite coastal location is also in flood and you're in sync.
- Watch a full day tides in one go
- The ‘mechanically animated’ illustrations can be demonstrated to friends and family at the push of the ‘Mechanimate’ button on the clock – it will then complete an entire tidal loop with rising a falling waves and swimmers bobbing up and down along the way. Swimwear and ice cream is optional!
- Easy to hang (indoors!)
- A single screw in the wall can hold the clock and you get a nifty hanging guide in the box. This clock is for indoor use only – and please don't hang it within 50cm (20 inches) of a radiator. The delicate mechanics don’t enjoy direct heat.
- 60-day returns, so you can be sure it’s right for you
- We’re sure you’re going to love this clock. But if you change your mind, for whatever reason, just send it back to us within 60 days of delivery for an exchange or full refund. You can read more about our hassle-free process here. And if you want to give someone a clock but can’t decide which one, you can always purchase a Gift Card?.

A note on unusual tide patterns
Our Tide Clocks forecast the tide state on a semi-diurnal mechanism. They therefore time the twice daily rise and fall of a standard semi-diurnal tide, (as found in all of the United Kingdom, most of Europe and the East Coast of the USA) that results from the gravitational pull of the moon. If you are in a location not listed above or with a known unusual tide then you can read more here.
I am so pleased to be the owner of my tide clock in Dorchester, Dorset, which unfailingly guides me to dog walks with the beach exposed. It's much admired by visitors.
