The Weems & Plath Atlantis brass barometer is ideal for boaters and maritime enthusiasts who appreciate classic style and precision. This instrument features a temperature-compensated aneroid movement that provides reliable weather forecasting. The solid-forged brass case is hand-polished and finished with a durable lacquer, ensuring both durability and visual appeal. The screw-in bezel makes the instrument easily accessible. There is a choice of a sea-level version up to 3,500 feet and a high-altitude version for higher altitudes between 3,500 and 7,000 feet. This means the barometer is adjusted for a higher pressure range, where the air is thinner. This model is available in brass or chrome and displays pressure in both inch and millibar scales. For added refinement, you can combine the barometer with an optional mahogany base. Handcrafted in the USA, this instrument comes with mounting hardware and a (limited) lifetime warranty, ensuring quality and precision. Perfect for use at sea or as a stylish addition to your interior.
A barometer that still gives you an accurate air pressure reading in the mountains.
The heart of the Atlantis series and the instrument on board that says the most. The fact that there is a high-altitude version also makes it suitable for a chalet or a house in the hills, where a standard barometer would be structurally incorrect.

• What exactly does a barometer do?
A barometer measures atmospheric pressure. Rising pressure usually indicates better weather, while falling pressure often predicts poorer weather.
• How do I read a barometer?
Check the current air pressure and compare it with previous readings. Rapid changes indicate short-term weather changes, while slow changes indicate long-term weather changes.
• Where can I hang my barometer?
Hang the barometer out of direct sunlight and not above a heat source. Ideal locations include a prominent spot in your home, on your boat, or in a vacation home where it's easily visible.
• How do I adjust my barometer?
Check the local air pressure (for example, via a weather app) and use the screw on the back to manually adjust the hand if necessary.
• Does a barometer require maintenance?
An aneroid barometer requires minimal maintenance. Keep the glass clean and store the barometer in a safe place to prevent damage.
• Can I use this barometer at higher altitudes?
The "sea level" barometer is set for sea level up to 3500 feet. For use at high altitudes, from 3500 to 7000 feet, you can select the "high altitude" barometer.
• Is the barometer waterproof?
Although the barometer can withstand humid environments, such as those aboard a boat, it is not a completely waterproof instrument. Protect it from direct water contact.
