The Wempe Skipper is a stylish barometer, mounted on a mahogany or high-gloss lacquered wooden base. With the traditional "Rain," "Change," and "Fair" markings on the white dial, this barometer provides an authentic representation of weather changes. This classic Skipper series instrument is equipped with an aneroid mechanism for measuring atmospheric pressure in hPa and mmHg. The generous 140mm white dial and clear black numerals provide a clear overview of the measured values. The barometer is available in brass/mahogany or chrome/high-gloss black and has a 210mm diameter housing. It is easily opened via the screw cap on the front. Suitable for both maritime environments and the home or office, this instrument is ideal for those who value accurate weather monitoring and navigation support.

• Use a soft microfiber cloth to gently remove dust and dirt without damaging the protective layer.
• Place the barometer in a dry place to prevent moisture and corrosion damage, especially in damp environments such as boats or RVs.
• Avoid strong cleaning or polishing agents that may damage the protective coating of the barometer housing.
• Recalibrate the barometer at the start of the season, after extended storage, or if you have any doubts about its accuracy. You can find instructions on how to do this in the FAQ.

• How do you read a barometer?
A barometer displays the current air pressure. For a weather forecast, you look at the difference from the previous reading and how quickly the pressure has changed. Rapid pressure changes indicate short-term weather changes; slow changes indicate longer-lasting weather changes.

• Where do I hang my barometer?
Air pressure is the same everywhere, but avoid locations in direct sunlight or above a heat source such as a stove. A prominent location in the boat or indoors ensures that you immediately notice pressure changes.

• How do I adjust my barometer?
Most barometers are factory-set. You can look up the current air pressure online and adjust the needle if necessary with a screw on the back of the mechanical barometer. If you have any questions, we're happy to help!

• Does a barometer work at any altitude?
Barometers are set to sea level. A few floors up a building usually don't make a difference, but for use at higher altitudes, such as in the mountains, calibration is necessary.
