It's .039" or about 1mm. Those are both metric (top scale) and inch.
You read the inboard scale (1:1), each mark is 0.025", then you add what the outboard scale reads (the numbers that line up the closest, 0.014 in your case). So it would be 0.025+0.014=0.039" Even easier, look at the metric scale, it's right at 1mm (or 0.039"
)
