Beats me, and I was a Machinist. Looks some sort of special calibrating device for checking some part for tolerance

It's looks like a piece to an elaborate balance scale..... but that's just a guess.

Yup, appears to be a precision instrument of some sort. Labels would help. Cool topic.

It looks to me like it could be a large depth mike it is hard to tell from the picture. What kind of tollerances are ther on the label???
