  Weston often used the same model number for a complete series of meters.  Model 433 was available both as an AC ammeter and AC voltmeter. Each series covered individual meters with a variety of ranges.  For example the 433 voltmeter was available in double ranges as 15/30, 30/60, 75/150, 150/300 volts and, obvious from the example pictured, 5/10.  Apparently the model was also available in triple ranges. 

  The same was also true of the 433 ammeters with ranges of 1/2, 2.5/5, 5/10, and 10/20 as shown in the  technical info from the catalog appended to this page.  Thus the 433 "model number" was more a style and form factor with a specification for precision than an exacting model number for an individual meter.
