An example, you exist. You know that you exist because you observe this to be the case. Therefore, you're both the observer (the one acknowledging your existence) and the observed (that which exists). You are self referential...in actual fact the Universe is self referential.

Yes, but accurate measurement is different issue.
You always need a reference (etalon) to compare with.
For example: 1kg mass used to be defined as a chunk of iridium, stored somewhere in Paris ..

And so on.
