Founded in the 1850s, Schatz was for years the leading manufacturer of classic ship’s instruments.
For sale, a fine example of their top-of-the-range barometer, made in West Germany pre-1992. It shows superb workmanship and is fully functional. The barometer is in near-mint vintage condition with only minimal patina in one place (see photo #14). The lacquered brass housing is fine, without cracks, dents or major blemishes. The dial is in excellent condition. The door is secured by a brass closure. The facet-cut glass port is clean and intact.
The barometer is calibrated in both millibars and inches (mercury units). There is a fine capillary thermometer (Celsius/Fahrenheit). The barometer may need adjusting after transport, easily done with a screwdriver via front access (photo #22).
A great opportunity to own one of these superb instruments, for use at home, in the office or on-board ship.
I pack with care (see reviews) and send securely with insurance.
