A very nice and complete Kriegsmarine Barograph by Lufft.

Complete with its original transit box, spare graphs and ink bottle, all elements are in very good condition, the Barograph itself appearing to be working well.

The transit case is without damage and marked to the maker.

The barograph is contained in its glass sided case, the case with a clear and unmolested data plate with the North Sea inventory number 3672N .  

Unlike a Barometer which records Barometric pressure on a dial, the Barograph works with a clockwork revolving drum and ink filled marker with displays the changes in pressure visually. After running for 7 days the graph paper can be changed and a fresh graph added. In this case the Drum is constructed in brass which I believe is indicative of an early piece.

An appealing and socially accept display piece.
