Montauk Classic Weather Station by Maximum Weather Instruments
SKU:MAX-MC
The Montauk Classic station is based on the Montauk weather station introduced in the late 1970’s. Montauk holds the distinction of being Maximum’s single most requested weather instrument arrangement. In celebration of this long standing honor, we are pleased to offer a Limited Edition version of the flagship station.
When comparing the Montauk Classic to the current Montauk station, one of the more noticeable differences is in the dial artwork. Over the years, the dials have changed subtly. The dials of the Montauk Classic maintain the look of the instrument dials that we used 25 years ago. Another difference is in the barometer. The Montauk Classic includes the Proteus barometer just as Montauk did when it was first introduced. Adding to the modified dial graphics, each instrument of the Montauk Classic weather station is discretely imprinted with the words “Limited Edition”. Completing the original, "classic" appearance of the weather station is a lighter finished, more detailed, solid mahogany wall-mounting panel.
In addition to the classic styling, each brass cased instrument in the Montauk Classic utilizes a finishing treatment unlike anything ever offered on a Maximum instrument. This “PVD” treatment adds a titanium finish to our solid brass case, making it virtually tarnish-proof. They have tested cases treated with this finish in a harsh salt water environment, for the equivalent of ten years, with no noticeable change in appearance.
The Montauk Classic consists of three Limited Edition instruments which provide all the information necessary to create your own personal weather forecast:
Mini-Max monitors outdoor temperature, with memory of high and low temperature.
Maestro monitors wind speed and wind direction, with our unique gust register for recording high wind speed.
Proteus monitors barometric pressure, with reminder needle to track changes in pressure.
This attractive arrangement of solid brass instruments on a light Mahogany panel compliments almost any décor, and offers:
- A Limited Edition arrangement.
- PVD treaded brass cases which are virtually tarnish-proof.
- The classic styling of days gone by.
- The quality, craftsmanship and reliability of Maximum weather instruments.
