Reply to comment by THE_CENTURION in "The longest-lived micrometer than can be bought." J.T. Slocomb micrometers and stand, all fully restored by myself. Each mic is between 70-120 years old, and they're all still accurate. by ExHempKnight
Nah they’re right. I calibrate the color on my computer’s LCD display at home every few months and typically don’t need to change much
