Windward Instruments to Launch own Weather Instruments launching own brand of weather instruments

Windward Instruments brand weather instruments will be available online at The Windward Store upon launch, and will be available at BellClocks.com shortly thereafter. The date of availablility has not been released, but is believed to be around November 1, 2007.

Windward Instruments will initially offer 2 weather instruments which match each other in size and design and offer very affordable pricing (estimeted below $50.00), and are targeted to customers who want quality movements without a price tag in the hundreds of dollars.

The instruments include a Barometer, and Thermometer Hygrometer (hydrometer) or "comfortmeter".

Both will feature a lightweight lacquered brass case in open back design, with shatter resistant plastic crystal lens, and french movements. Dial size will be around 3 3/4", with a rear diameter of around 4 1/4" and depth of 1 3/4". The instruments will include mounting screws, and will carry a 1 Year Warranty.

The Windward Instruments Barometer will feature the popular "old fashioned" dial design, with "change" at center top of dial.

One feature of the Windward Instruments barometer which is unique in this price range is that it utilizes the full dial for display of measurements similar to some higher priced hi-sensitivity units. The advantage is that small changes in pressure are very evident, as the indicator moves further to indicate change.

The Thermo Hygro favors an easy to ready "European" design, with separate indicators for temperature and humidity. Temperature will be displayed in the upper dial, and humidity displayed lower dial. Humidity range indicates "normal" range for comfort.
