I have this on a tank I just bought.
I'd like to be have a dual guage set up like my Great White.
I see Amazon cheap chineese options but am nervous to order.
options?

The valve you have appears to be a "Jubilee." I have two tanks with this valve and both valves are excellent. You might want to consider saving the cost of a replacement valve and just doing deadhead tests to determine the pressure in your tank.

well ....upon the first fill there was a leak in the valve at the tank. when I tried to drain the tank at about 175bar it took 30 minutes fully open to purge and smelled like a moldy garden hose.Valve removed and its corroded to hell.inside of tank has yellow s$%t spots in it.its going back to the vendor I bought it from.

SOMEONE was not very careful about removing moisture while filling! Bummer!

I called the vendor who I bought it from and they said well "sorry that's why we sold it cheap,we dont test them " It was not advertised as such.
It was cheap because it only has a year left and I fill myself so i'm not that concerned of the date.

We're it me, I'd get a Scott SCBA valve to replace the one on tank. MAKE SURE you clean inside of tank & dry THOROUGHLY. What brand is that tank? Scott valves can be had cheaply on Ebay.
