The disclosure depicts a measuring instrument incorporating in relatively movable portions thereof optical type displacement detecting devices. Each of the optical type displacement detecting devices includes: a main scale having fringes constituted by reflecting portions and non-reflecting portions, both of which are lined up alternately; an index scale having fringes constituted by light transmitting portions and non-light transmitting portions, both of which are lined up alternately; a light emitting element for irradiating an index scale and a main scale; and a light receiving element for receiving light reflected by the main scale through the index scale to emit an electric signal corresponding to a relative displacement value between the both scales. The main scale is provided thereon with a disturbance preventing layer which absorbs light transmitted through the non-reflecting portions of the main scale not to allow the light to be reflected to the index scale.
