A pointer display with a first visible indication and a second visible indication, including a first pointer element, the first pointer element being rotatable around a first axis and comprising a first pointer arm and a first stem, the first stem extending in a first axis and the first pointer arm extending away from the first stem to facilitate the first visible indication; and a second pointer element, the second pointer element being rotatable around a second axis and comprising a second pointer arm and a second stem, the second stem extending a second axis and the second pointer arm extending away from the second stem to facilitate the second visible indication, and the first axis and the second axis being coincident with each other wherein the first pointer element and the second pointer element rotate around a common axis.

Dual pointer display

A display device for displaying two graphics is provided. The display device has first and a second light transmitting substrates, each having a front surface and a rear surface, the first substrate including at least one etched region corresponding to a first graphic, and the second substrate including at least one etched region corresponding to an inverse or negative of the first graphic. The display device also has first and second light sources arranged to emit light into the first and second substrates. The first substrate conveys the light to the etched region(s) of the first substrate which then scatters light towards the user. The second light source is behind the second substrate and emits light through both substrates towards the user. When the first light source is illuminated only the first graphic is displayed, and when the second light source is illuminated only the second graphic is displayed.
