 The OM1 and other needle type meters must have an off switch which
 also clamps down the very delicate meter movement so a bump does not
 break it.

The OM-1 (and OM-2) switch only cuts power to the circuit, it doesn't do
anything to the meter.  The meter can be damaged by impact at any time.

I did not know that.  I hope it is more robust than the Canon I had.
