                        Report of Independent Auditors


The Administrative Committee
The Ametek Savings and Investment Plan


We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of The Ametek
Savings and Investment Plan as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statements of income and changes in plan equity for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1994.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial status of The Ametek Savings and Investment
Plan at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in its financial status for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
     -----------------------

The following brief description of The AMETEK Savings and Investment Plan ("the
Plan") provides only summarized information. Participants should refer to the
Summary Plan Description for more complete information.

The Plan is a tax-deferred 401(k) defined contribution savings plan which
provides eligible employees of AMETEK, Inc. ("the Company"), and certain
affiliated companies, an opportunity to invest up to 14% of their compensation,
subject to certain limits, in one or a combination of investment programs
(described in Note 3). Participants are fully vested at all times in their
contributions to the Plan and are vested in Company contributions after three
years of service, or upon death, attainment of age 65 or early, normal or
disability retirement. Forfeited Company contributions, which are insignificant
in amount, are used to reduce current-year Company contributions. If a
participant terminates employment with the Company for any reason, he or she may
receive a distribution following termination of employment or may elect to
commence distribution at or after age 65, but no later than age 70 1/2. When a
participant attains age 59 1/2 while still an employee, he or she can elect to
withdraw the vested amount of his or her account balance. Also, in certain cases
of financial hardship, a participant may elect to withdraw up to specified
amounts of his or her vested account balance, regardless of age. The Plan also
allows participants to borrow funds from their accounts, subject to certain
limitations, and such amounts are reflected in a loan account until repaid.

The Plan provides for Company contributions equal to 33 1/3 % of the first 6% of
compensation contributed by each participant, to a maximum contribution of
$1,200 per participant.  Effective January 1, 1995, matching Company
contributions are credited to participants' accounts at the same time their
contribution is invested.  Previously, such Company contributions were
credited to participants' accounts annually.

While the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it is free
to do so at any time subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 as amended ("ERISA"), and applicable labor agreements, if
any.  In the event of termination, each participant will receive the value of
his or her separate account.  Participants' collective accounts are represented
by the Plan's equity as shown in the accompanying financial statements.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     ------------------------------------------

Basis of financial statements
- -----------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting, except for the non-accrual of liabilities for amounts owed to former
participants, which are reflected in plan equity in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (see Note 7).   Purchases and sales of
investments are reflected on trade dates.  Realized gains and losses on sales of
investments are based on the average cost of such investments.  Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Income from other investments is recorded
as earned.

Investment valuation
- --------------------
Investments in the Dreyfus group of equity funds and the Common Stock Fund are
carried at market value based upon closing market quotes on the last business
day of the Plan year.   Guaranteed income contracts, money market and short-term
investments are carried at the redemption prices and fair value established by
the issuer and/or the trustee.  The Life Insurance Contracts are carried at the
cash value of such policies at year-end.

In September 1994, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
a Statement of Position ("SOP 94-4") which specifies, among other things, that
defined-contribution plans report certain investment contracts at fair value.
SOP 94-4 will change the Plan's current practice of reporting guaranteed income
contracts at contract values.  The requirements of SOP 94-4 are effective for
financial statements beginning with the 1995 plan year, except for investment
contracts entered into before December 31, 1993, for which the effective date is
the 1996 plan year.  The effect of initially applying this new accounting
requirement will be reported as a cumulative effect type of an accounting change
in the period of adoption.  The impact on Plan equity of applying this new
accounting rule is not known at this time.

3.   INVESTMENT PROGRAMS
     -------------------

At December 31, 1994, The Dreyfus Trust Company served as Trustee for the Plan.
Each participant may have his or her accounts invested (up to certain specified
limits) in one or a combination of the following investment programs:

(a)  The Fixed Income Fund:
     ----------------------

     The assets of the Fixed Income Fund are presently invested in guaranteed
     income contracts (GIC) issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance
     Company, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, and the Dreyfus Capital
     Preservation Fund, managed by LaSalle National Trust, N.A.  In addition,
     included in this fund are investments in the Dreyfus Government Securities
     Series Money Market Fund, an open-end mutual fund.  No direct commissions,
     fees or other charges are assessed against the accounts invested in this
     Fund.  Prior to January 1, 1995, annual matching Company contributions were
     temporarily invested in this Fund and allocated, together with earnings
     thereon, to the individual investment funds (see Note 1).

(b)  The Equity Fund:
     ----------------
     At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the investments of the Equity Fund consisted
     of the following:

</TABLE> 

     The above investments primarily consist of common stocks of small and
     medium sized domestic and foreign growth companies. However, the funds may
     also use various investment techniques, including foreign exchange and
     derivatives transactions. Participants should refer to the respective
     Dreyfus mutual fund prospectus for more complete information. Shares in
     each fund are purchased at the net asset value of the respective funds and
     no direct commissions, fees or other charges are assessed against the
     accounts invested in these funds. Effective January 1, 1995, the fund added
     two new investment alternatives for participants: The Fidelity Puritan Fund
     and The Fidelity Magellan Fund. These broadly diversified mutual funds
     invest in a wide range of domestic and foreign stocks, bonds and other
     types of investments.

(c)  Insurance  Contracts:
     ---------------------

     Employee contributions are presently used to maintain previously purchased
     life insurance policies underwritten by First Colony Life Insurance Company
     of Lynchburg, Virginia and American Mayflower Insurance Company of New
     York.  Commissions paid on Insurance Contracts are charged directly against
     the participants' insurance accounts.  Since July 1, 1987, participants may
     not make an initial investment election to this Fund.

(d)  The Common Stock Fund:
     ----------------------

     At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the assets of the Common Stock Fund
     consisted of 359,207 shares (cost $4,907,039) and 328,308 shares (cost
     $4,422,607) of the Company's common stock.  Shares of the Company's common
     stock may be purchased by the Trustee on the open market, directly from the
     Company, or from other stockholders.  Brokerage commissions paid are
     charged against the accounts invested in this Fund.

3.   INVESTMENT PROGRAMS (continued)
     -------------------            

A participant may change his or her total contribution percentage election as of
January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1 of any year.  In addition, the plan
provides for participant-directed investing, whereby participants may change
their investment selection within or between investment programs or specific
investment funds in which their contributions are invested at any time, subject
to certain limitations.  The Plan also permits a participant, at any time, to
completely discontinue contributions on a prospective basis.

The Trustee invests the portion of employee contributions awaiting allocation to
the investment options chosen by participants in a short-term investment fund.

There were approximately 4,900 participants in the Plan at December 31, 1994.
The approximate number of participants in each fund at December 31, 1994 was as
follows:

               was sold in September, 1992.

5.   FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
     -------------------------

The Company has received a determination letter dated December 29, 1994, from
the Internal Revenue Service that the Plan qualifies under Section 401 of the
Internal Revenue Code, and is therefore exempt from federal income tax.
Continued qualification of the Plan is subject to the maintenance of its present
form, or a new Internal Revenue Service determination.

Under the Plan, contributions will not be taxed to the employee until a
distribution from the Plan is received.  However, participants who invest in
insurance contracts will be subject to ordinary income tax annually on the
premiums paid for the life insurance coverage.

6.   EXPENSES
     --------

The expenses of administering the Plan are payable from the trust funds, unless
the Company elects to pay such expenses.  For the Plan years ended December 31,
1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company elected to pay such expenses directly.

7.   DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND FORM 5500
     ------------------------------------------------------

The following is a reconciliation of Plan equity at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
presented in the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and the deduction for amounts owed to former
participants' upon withdrawals and terminations from the Plan for the years
ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 compared to the amounts reported on Form
5500.  Amounts owed to former participants are reported on the Form 5500 for
benefit claims that have been processed but not paid at year-end.  Such amounts
are not recorded as liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles.
