Abstract
A thermometer movement comprising a two-part shell and a bimetal coil housed within the two-part shell. The stationary end of the bimetal coil is attached to the rear part of the shell, which is rotatably mounted to the front part. The thermometer movement of the present invention can thus be calibrated by hand, without the need for a tool, merely by manually rotating the rear part of the shell relative to the front part.
