The TRIGONOMETRIC SCALES  are divided in  MINUTES(') & SECONDS(")

Because the scales W1/W1' start at 1 and end at sqrt(10)
    and the scales W2/W2' start at sqrt(10) and end at 10
the 25 cm NESTLER has the "PRECISION" of a 50 cm slide rule !!!

This historic mahogany model has a table with physical constants
on its back side and a blind print "28" ?  It came without case.

Historical Remarks ...

Compare the SCALE DESIGN with
    the »NESTLER-27«,
    the »WICHMANN-1417« ( made by A.N. = Albert Nestler),
    the FABER-CASTELL »COLUMBUS/A.Rohrberg« and
    the "modern" FABER-CASTELL »NOVO-DUPLEX«
