Pressure Gauge?

Hi all,
I have just received my Lezyne Road Drive pump and realised it doesnt have a pressure gauge built in (completely overlooked this issue when ordering :-S )
I have a few options, I can either return it and get another pump with the gauge built in, but i love the look and quality of the lezyne, or i could buy an in line Lezyne gauge for £18!!!! I wondered whether there are any stand alone gauges that are suitable for presta valves that I could purchase to check the pressure? something small and compact would be ideal.
I don't have a track pump (and was kinda hoping i could use the Lezyne as my one and only pump, but that relies on me having some sort of pressure gauge....).
Thanks
Rob

I think its well worth coughing up for a track pump. Much the easiest way to pump tyres. Then you can keep your Lezyne for emergencies. And hopefully never use it !
Get the Joe Blow - thats got a gauge built in and it will last you for years. And years.0
