He wants an analog meter that is more old school and I can't say I blame him.It is so much easy to adjust for a peak or a dip with an analog meter as opposed to a digital meter.

Used to have a nice hybrid for $25. Digital readout and an analog meter. Didn't know he already had a Fluke.

If the main attraction of an analog meter these days is to adjust for peaks or dips, there are several Chinese ones available in the $20 range.
No need for a $200 - $400 Simpson or $100 - $200 Triplett, IMHO. I'd spend that kind of money on a good Fluk DMM instead and keep a couple cheapie analog VOMs around for 'peaking an dipping' ;-)
Get the right tool for the right job. I say get one of each. But for matching parts, bias, etc... that DMM sure is easy to use. Get a damn good Fluke and then find a analog meter. They pop up at flee markets ALL the time!!!!
Amen.
