Hi all!

Can anyone help me, what is the marking of this German time fuze and what kind of projectiles it was used for?

Thanks

That is manufactured a Tavaro time fuse 5 from Switzerland for Germany in 2 WK. As far as I know it is for the 7.5 cm Flak. Harry
 
Hi all
A feature for this mechanical time fuze is found under No. 209 Mk I in the british nomenclature
Into service in 1937 and retired in 1947
N209 Mk I was the Swiss original model . Its the same that your German fuze
N209 Mk II was used with the HE Mk Ic shell (AA) of 4.5 inch
No210 was also equipped with the system of Swiss watchmaking (Tavaro) 40 seconds. It is practically identical to N209, but took back forms of N222 Elle been brought into service in 1940 and retired in 1958 It armed the 25 pdr shell ECL or SMK
