AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a vintage ammeter from Siemens & Halske.
It is an analog measuring instrument that measures current in amperes (A).
The object has an ebony housing and probably dates from the 1930s.
The meter has various measurement scales, such as 0-1 A, 0-5 A, and 0-20 A, 0-100, which suggests that it is a multimeter or a meter with multiple ranges.
Similar meters are traded as collectibles.
Although the leather strap on one side is broken but repairable, this is a unique historical instrument in very good and complete condition.
Because it could measure up to 100 Amps, it was appreciated by the German military units, including the submarine service, which used heavy batteries for the diesel engines and also monitored the batteries to ensure they were being recharged.
