Default Brown & Sharpe Calipers

Back when I spent some time working with a real
machinist, he said that the best calipers were
Brown & Sharp. Well, a couple of years ago I
bought a B&S Digit-Cal digital caliper for work.
It feels nice, goes back to zero everytime, but
drives me nuts with it's delay. I figured it's
just me so the other day I bought a B&S dial
caliper for home. I'm disappointed with it's
feel and the pointer is angled about 2 degrees
to the right at zero. All in all, my $18 Enco
no-name serves better.

Anyone have any thoughts about this?
