Not sure if this is what they were talking about but the Casio Pathfinder watches may have what you are looking for. Some are priced well and others are over $300. I personally have the Casio Fishing watch it's listed on BPS for $49 but I think you can get it at WalMart for $35. The link below will show you some of the watches they may have been talking about.

Surfing watches have that tides and some have moon phases. Just look at surfermag.com or quicksilver.

RipCurl also has a line of nice watches that tell moon phases and tides for a good number of local beaches. I have the Ripcurl Rincon Oceansearch ATS and I switch it between HB and Newport regularly. It also has a session timer as well, and a few other cool actions that I haven't figured out how to use yet. :doh:

I have the same watch, Had it about 5yrs. you have to manually enter Lat. Lon. for it to be at all useful, gives you moon Phase, sunrise/sunset, & when the bite is suppose be on.
It works great at keeping time, moon phase, sun up & sun down are all pretty accurate & the 4 bites a day I get, for some strange reason are 2hrs long, with the tide change smack in the middle.

Once you get all the data locked in they are pretty accurate. I have owned 2 of them in the last 10 years. The first one I lost, but my current one has been going strong for 5 years. You can even set the alarm to a silent setting which is helpful if you are somewhere and cannot hear your alarm for whatever reason.

The watch is at Walmart for about $20 less than at BPS.

For what it's worth,
I have the $300 one, the Casio Pathfinder:
Stainless and Titanium = no salty issues.
Water proof to super deep.
Digital Compass = Sick.
Tides.
Moon.
Barometer.
Altimeter.
It's badass.
If you can afford it, it's a good buy. Got it on Amazon for around $270.

This is the watch I wanted but I settled for the $35 one. The watch you are describing is very nice.

My wife just gave me my anniversary gift...
PAG240-1 Casio Pathfinder watch
Feature I will use most= DIGITAL COMPASS = SICK
it also has a barometer and altimeter (i haven't figured out how i would use the latter for fishing yet, i guess if the weather changes the barometer will go up)
It doesn't have the moon or tides, but i can't complain... :P

I need to replace mine with a smaller one. I have a ff/gps combo unit so I don't need the gps...just need to tell time.
P.S. Happy Anniversary

Or you can get a free app for your phone with a nice graphical display of the tides and moon.
