The late B-type spectroscopic binary, HD 208095, is removed from the diminishing ranks of spectroscopic binaries with apparently anomalous masses by means of analysis of a new set of spectrograms. The minimum masses (3.5 and 3.2 solar masses) are close to the masses expected for the spectral types. The more massive star has the slightly earlier type. While the line widths in the spectrum of the cooler component of this detached system are consistent with equality of orbital and rotational periods, the lines of the hotter component are considerably broader.
