Which is the best tyre pressure gauge?

After 50 years driving, I have yet to find a tyre pressure gauge that is satisfactory to use. Often I find that I let so much air out trying to get the gauge to sit on the valve that I need to pump the tyre up again when it was probably at the right pressure in the first place! I have searched the web for something different, but without success.

Do you know of a foolproof gauge that sits correctly without undue air loss?
