Either would work fine...once you develope a feel for them, you wont use the ratchet or thimble anyway. Starting out, I would elect for the friction thimble, I think they have a softer touch, you can really get the ratchet ones to tighten down hard if you dont know what your doing.
.0001 dial caliper would be a waste of money, just get the .001"
Personally I use Mitutoyo, same quality as Starrett and Brown & Sharpe at a fraction of the cost. I work as a toolmaker building high precision micro-molds for alot of inside the body medical parts. We work with tolerances in microns on a daily bases.
