This is a very neat old pocket barometer and altimeter. The body is brass with a beveled glass crystal. Barometer goes from 21-31 and altimeter goes from 0 to 10,000 feet. The outer bezel turns for adjusting the altimeter numbers. This piece does not appear to be working, i see no movement of the needle. May need a cleaning or tweaking. Back has an adjustment screw for the needle setting which works. Measures 2 in diameter. The face is marked – compensated, made in england.
