| 86135 Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. c. to G/MT. c. to D/BP. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.5/MA.28.9.33. BENTLEY INSTRUMENTS. We are sending into the stores a Bentley A.T. speedometer and rev-clock indicator, Nos.G.855 and G.810 respectively. The speedometer has the trip spindle seized and the rev-clock has lost one of its clock hands. These failures demand special consideration from the A.T.Co., in view of the extraordinary high price we pay for these instruments. Whilst these instruments are at the Makers we should like them brought completely up-to-date with the modified dials etc. Order No.54107. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
