Digging in the goodies field: Jaeger Barometer / Thermometer.

Compared to Clavi, Blomman, Greg and Stefan, I'm a beginner in this matter, but I am learning slow...

After an interesting Ref 70, a combiné of an 8 Days Alarm, Barometer and Thermometer clock dierectly coming from the Jubilé Collection, and another thing I will reveal later, here is  my latest catch, a barometer thermometer made by Jaeger, which, should I precise it, was the French Marine Watchmaker ( at least one of them ).

It is brass made, 18 cm high and 16 cm large.
 
For  an impeccable work, you first have to set the altitude of the place you live, et voilà.
 
Nothing spectacular,  but appealing.

Still have to dig the topic, not that I haven't found ideas, but I still have to lock my targets, and some don't  seem to be easy birds to catch...
 
To be continued.
 
Best,
 
Nicolas.
