In the video Why Jet Boats are AWESOME (U.S. Coast Guard's Workhorse) at ?t=866 they show a Falling Ball Viscosity Comparator

Falling Ball Viscosity Comparator - The Gerin Corporation
The Gerin Model V-3 Falling Ball Viscosity Comparator instrument measures viscosity and detects contaminants in lubricants. This viscosity test method utilizes the principles established in ASTM D 445 Standard Test Method for Kinematic Viscosity of Opaque Fluids.

Falling Ball Viscometer Principle - Inst Tools
The Falling Ball Viscometer is based on the measuring principle by Höppler for simple but precise dynamic viscosity measurement of transparent Newtonian fluids. The basic concept is to measure the elapsed time required for the ball to fall under gravity through a sample-filled tube inclined at an angle*.
