Indication or barometer

How would you correctly write both sentences?


Hands are a good indication/barometer of your age. You can tell someones age by looking at their hands.

thanks

anonymous Hands are a good indication/barometer of your age. I would use "indicator". An indication is more figurative, and a barometer measures something abstract.
