I bought one of those gauges from sears, and found the fitting to be terrible.
I couldn't get a tight seal on the valve stem when I attemted to get a reading. I have a gauge from brookstone, which is certainly uglier than the accutire gauges, but the fitting for the valve stem is much better quality.

I have this one, I like it over my old Accutire gauge for 2 reasons...
Here it is:

First off, it's way easier to use, easier to read (analog guage), and the tire connector is easier to get a good fit on first time.
Second off, it has a bleeder valve to bleed air, and the analog gauge is still accurate while bleeding (my accutire couldn't do that).
