The case of the Barometer is made from metal and brass in colour. The dial to the barometer is silver in colour with black markings and a blued steel pointer, the compass side is black in colour with gold coloured markings for the thermometer and silver and black for the compass. It has a carrying ring to the top and a rotating bezel which turns nice and smoothly and is marked from 0 to 10000 feet and 21 to 31 of pressure. To the side is a small adjusting screw for the barometer and also a cut-out for a lever to hold the compass needle when not being used, this lever is missing so for this reason I am selling this barometer as is.
