I'm with Gloria. Used something very similar when lapping engine valves in. Those were the days when we worked nights.

I'm reminded of a daylight recorder. There used to be one Queens Park Burnley that burnt the time the sun was out on some recording paper.

Looks a bit like a Puffin. Too modern to be part of Nidd Hall etc. So guessing Gibraltar.
