    I am sure it was used to measure as there are bubbles with numbers on them, I am guessing it tells temp? There is a german written label on it. Picked from a small local shop for $25 because I liked the look of it and my father was german. Thank you!

      Looks like a variety of a Galileo thermometer to me.
