GORGEOUS Art Deco Weston Photronic Exposure Meter Model 650 circa 1935 Highly collectible Retro camera decor with leather case

ABOUT: Weston Photronic (Universal) Exposure Meter Model 650: 1935, USA manufacture.
​
This was Weston’s alternative design to the model 617 type 2. The side by side arrangement of meter and dial may have seemed like a good ergonomic alternative to the up-and-over design of the 617. Time has proved that the 617 was the better arrangement. However, the 650 does have space for the iconic Art Deco fan feature arranged around the meter needle pivot. Coupled with the truncated edges, this styling represents an unashamed adoption of the 30’s Art Deco movement. The fan shape is replicated in Weston’s direct reading exposure meter.
​
This model is a popular collectible today due to its Art Deco styling.
