In the end, it does not matter exactly how precise the gauge is.  It is more important that it reads exactly the same each time

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Accuracy is the closest to the true value while precision is the repeatability.  Up scale and down scale will vary with the gauge because it inherently suffers from hysterisis.  Given accuracy of a gauge means nothing unless you know if it is for full scale, every half scale or of reading.
