Default tide clock

I saw a tide clock on ebay today,


So let me see:
1) the clock does not tell you the level of the tide. For example
Low -1.9 or High +11.4
2) only good for the place where you set it.
3) so if i sail to another port I need to reset the clock.
3) I'll need a tide table to set it. Do I need to fall back and spring
forward?
4) Uhh, why do I need a clock if I have a tide table to keep the clock
accurate?
5) Oh ya.. They look cool. I guess its worth 70 OZ Dollars to increase
the cool factor on one's boat.
