Marisa Tomei said, "I used a torque wrench calibrated to (somethin somethin) with standards traceable to NIST.  "  Most direct TMDE reference in a movie I have ever heard.    I think she spouted off some more lines about it but I can't recall. 

She said "Dead on balls accurate"

Saw a really old O scope in naked gun. Wasn't triggered. Just a dumb dot slowly moving across the screen... in a hospital.

Just recently in the commercials with that Fallon guy and the baby, right at the end there is a shelf in the back with alot of stuff. One looks like a old resistor box. Also I think it was a Mazda one out on the desert testing one of their models zooming by, the tech looks like he playing with a 500 series scope. How that equates to their state of the art autos I don't know.

almost in every episode of NCI Miami when they show the lab, you can see an agilent spectrophotometer or a fisher scientific centrifuge, also on SG1 the control panel has a few scopes

Big Bang Theory when they are at Cal Tech.

On the original Battlestar Galactica the bridge had multiple racks of Tektronix TM500 test equipment. It was even mentioned in the ending credits, "Bridge test equipment provided by Tektronix.".
"No matter where you go, There you are!"

Hawaii596

They'd have to change it now to "Bridge test equipment provided by Danaher".
