Wittner have been making metronomes to their high standard since 1895. They are considered by many to be the best 'traditional' style metronome.
The Maelzel series 800 metronomes feature a detachable front cover with a securing lock and a wind-up mechanism. This 802 model has a high gloss, genuine mahogany wooden case.
The metal swinging arm has a weight which moves down along its length to match the desired bpm, which is clearly marked on a metal back plate.
