Ship's Clock
Description
An app that mimics the traditional ship's clock by ringing a bell every half-hour. This style of timekeeping dates back to sailing ships, where clocks were not practical. The clock is based on four-hour watches starting at 12, 4, or 8 (am or pm). This app is perfect for those who want to experience a piece of maritime history and tradition.

From the developer:
The Ships Clock application will ring a bell on every half-hour in the style of the standard ship's clock. That standard has its roots in centuries of sailing ships around the world where clocks were impractical and is still used in present-day navies. It is based on four-hour watches: each watch was on duty for four hours starting at the hour of 12, 4, or 8 (am or pm).
