I've read a few good reports on this old model. And it's still being made,

This looks like an early micron gauge. You may want to check around some of the blogs to see if any info about this model gauge pops up. It looks like you go through some kind of manual calibration before you use it. Not such a bad thing but the digital ones do this automatically.

As I recall, I got my micron gauge new, from a local supplier for $130. I'm not seeing any on ebay that cheap.

When I was shopping on ebay for a mini split, they were more expensive than from an online dealer.

It pays to shop around.
