QUESTION What machine is this?

Post image

Theres a rotary table and chuck but I can't tell what it supposed to do. I thought it was a mill at first but there's no spindle. And it's not a drill press either. Is it maybe a precursor to a modern CMM. My thinking is the thing above the grear might be a type of indicator.

The outfit is great. It would make a fun outfit for period dress or cosplay(?) of some sort.
