It's a Fluke!
This meter is made in China and intended for the Asian market. It is, from everything I can see, of classic Fluke quality. Everything works as it should!
The accuracy tolerances aren't as tight as the US-made products but for hobbyist, electrician, trade use it is more than adequate! It's on my bench... de W1ES

Sometimes, you need an analogue meter!
1 of 1 found this helpful I cut my technician teeth on this meter and the Tek 453 scope. Each has a special place in my heart. Beyond nostalgia, however, people tend to forget how good these meters still are! There are definite applications for an analogue meter - such as peaking circuits or use in an environment where there's RF voltage that would scramble the readings of a DMM.
I have friends who swear by the Simpson 260 but they are pretty much contemporaries and very similar to each other. I prefer the big, red pointer for the switch and how it's semi-recessed.
If you decide to purchase one of these in an auction or fixed-price sale, you should know a few things first:
Usually, price is an indicator of condition and functionality.
The meter uses a common D cell battery plus a 30V industrial battery. The 30V battery is available with searching and should cost you about $12-15.
If the batteries have been left in the meter for years, you will likely find heavy leakage from the batteries which may affect the meter's function - particularly if the leakage found its way into the switch contacts.
All of the various series are 98% functional equivalents. The more recent meters are rated for "only" 5000V instead of 6000V.
