Two readings, no compromise. Every piece in this collection gives you barometric pressure and temperature, whether that's two dials mounted together as a weather station or two standalone instruments sold as a matched set.
Real precision on every dial. Each reading runs its own calibrated Fischer movement. Pairing a barometer and thermometer together doesn't mean sacrificing accuracy on either one.
A finish for every room. Ash and chrome, brushed brass, polished brass, mahogany, walnut and stainless steel, so the instrument fits the room it's going in, not just the job it's doing.
Backed by the distributor, not just the manufacturer. Barometers & Clocks is the NZ and Australia distributor for Fischer Germany, and services and repairs what it sells directly. Problems are rare given the build quality, but if one comes up, we sort it out ourselves rather than sending you to chase a manufacturer warranty.
Kurt Fischer, an aircraft engineer, founded the Fischer factory in Drebach, in Germany's Ore Mountains, in October 1945. The company built its reputation on the barometer first, then extended the same hand-assembly standard to thermometers as demand for paired instruments grew.
The company stayed in Drebach through decades of change, including a period of state ownership, before returning fully to Fischer family hands in 1990. Whether you're looking at a multi-dial weather station or a matched instrument set, every reading is still built and calibrated in-house.
And because Barometers & Clocks is the NZ and Australia distributor for Fischer Germany, that heritage comes with direct backup. If your instrument ever needs attention, we service and repair it ourselves rather than sending you to deal with the manufacturer.
A barometer thermometer gives you a temperature reading alongside the pressure reading a plain barometer gives you, so you know what's coming and what it feels like right now, not just one of the two.
Both exist in this collection. Some pieces are multi-dial weather stations, a barometer face and a thermometer face mounted together on one wall piece. Others are matched sets of two standalone instruments sold together.
No. Each reading runs its own calibrated Fischer movement, hand-assembled the same way a standalone instrument would be.
Yes. They suit weather watchers, boaters, gardeners, retirees and anyone who appreciates a well-made instrument, and they work well as a milestone gift such as a retirement, anniversary or housewarming present.
An interior wall or shelf away from direct sunlight, heaters and extreme drafts gives the most accurate reading. Hallways, studies, living rooms and boat cabins are the most common spots.
