Actually the altimeter gage stops working for almost all aircraft at 30,000 feet which its metric equivalent is approximately 10,000 meters.
The only aircraft that I know of that the needles will continue to move above these altitudes are the P-38J & L and the P-51 all versions.
Altimeter gages on planes such as the F4U, F6F & P-47D, F4F, P-40, P-39 etc. do not continue to work past 30,000 feet (locks at 30,000) although the speed bar will continue to indicate if it has been enabled by the host.
