Affordable Quality
This is a versatile instrument with the ability to take inside, outside and depth readings. Good repeatability, and compares well against my Starret micrometer on OD readings. Easy to use, as long as you remember to reset the zero before making a measurement. Build quality was much better than expected for the price. Arrived with installed battery dead, so keep spares on hand.
