Default Tyre pressure gauge?

Thinking of investing in a really good TP gauge, what do you use?

Ive been told the PLATINUM PRO PRESSURE GUAGE is the dog's nuts - £138.00

I know what your saying but 9times out of 10 cheap pressure gauges actually don't read properly! I've got a 25quid job and borrowed a top end gauge and it was different! I know it's only track day'ing so but OTT but I've bought a dear one, comes in a lovely box tho so at least I will look fast!
