LOOKS like a Swiss Pesola balances but it's a Chinese copy, not the original Swiss Pesola (which is £39.00).

PROS
£4.90 instead of £39.00 for the Pesola (Swiss) version.
Good if you want something cheap that doesn't rely on batteries; if you want something to keep it in your inside pocket at all times (like a pen); if you aleady have a digital balances but want a 'spare' for when the batteries fail in the middle of a buying trip.
CONS (compared with a Pesola)
The markings aren't as easy to read; the spring doesn't move as smoothly; the adjuster is stiff; the clips is stiff; the spring will rust if it gets damp.
