Why Choose Smiths?

Smiths Industries has built automotive instrumentation in Britain for nearly a century — originally as OE supplier to Jaguar, Triumph, MG, and the rest of the classic British marques. Today the Smiths instrument range remains the gold standard for restorers who want their dashboards to look the way they did when the car left the factory. Smiths gauges have a recognizable look: clean dial face, the distinctive Smiths typeface, and the characteristic chrome or black 'V' bezel.
