Mitutoyo thickness gauges
I have 3 thickness gauges for sale. They are used and I'm looking for $350 shipped for the US.Model #547-400 with 543-252BS gauges. Measuring range is .5-.00005.

How about a pic??
Are the "thickness gauges" what a mechanic would call feeler gauges, as in checking valve clearances, or are you talking about a set of what a machinist would call gauge blocks.
.00005" (5/100,000 of an inch) is a pretty thin.

Not quite the same as a micrometer, I call them snap gauges. These retail for around 675 each.
Yes they are nice, would be great for measuring valve shims, valve stems, ring thickness, almost anything up to near 1/2 inch.
