Reverse further marked with instructions on another label "Réglage du Baromètre (Regulating the Barometer)". By sliding down this back panel, which has ornate brass hangers, the interior mechanisms are revealed. At the top is a chart listing the altitudes of 50 various cities in France, entitled "Altitudes de quelques villea (France)". Below this is a mercury thermometer and then the snaking barometer tube.

Provenance: West Sea Company, Old Town San Diego, California, 2001.The Kelton Collection of Marine Art & Artifacts.Notes:The sympiesometer, invented by Scotsman Alexander Adie in 1818, is fitted with a large bulb mercury thermometer with built-in mechanical adjusting features to compensate for the observer's altitude and temperature in order to ascertain an accurate barometric reading. The reading so obtained is in centimeters of mercury with the additional read-out (by means of a clever plumb-bob) indicating weather trends such as "Tres Sec, Variable, Tempete (Very Dry, Variable, Stormy)". Sympiesometers are often combined with other marine instruments. This instrument is in working condition and is extremely rare, especially considering its French origin and manufacture.
