BENTLEY REVOLUTION INDICATOR NO.G.854.

We are sending into the stores the above rev counter. Will you please arrange to return this to the A.T.Speedometer Co., to have the dial changed for an up-to-date one, and have the calibration made correct at 4500 R.P.M. at 35ºC.

We should like them to make a special job of this by calibrating it in Messrs.Smith & Sons Electrical Laboratory at Cricklewood using their Stroboscope as this speedometer is required for a very special car.
