The comparative analysis for 1324 measurements of the corresponding sunspot magnetic fields with B &gt; 2.5 kG (according to Crimean data) obtained at Crimean and Mt. Wilson observatories from 2010 to 2017 has been carried out. It has been shown that the difference between measurements can exceed 1 kG in some cases. The averaged values of the magnetic field are equal to 2759 G (Crimea) and 2196 G (Mt. Wilson). The maximum sunspot magnetic field measured at Mt. Wilson does not reach 2.7 kG while
