M3.5 x 0.6 is also a size, as are M3 x 0.5 and M3 x 0.35.
If the diameter is a full 3mm, I would guess M3.5 x 0.6 because the OD across 
the crests on a metric thread is always slightly smaller than the nominal OD.
It could also be 1/8 x 40TPI which is a commonly used thread on pendulum rods 
(Model Engineer series) but that has a 55 degree  Whitworth form with rounded 
roots and crests.

What are the measured OD and the pitch, and the flank angle?
