you have an austro-hungarian Skoda export fuze. The scale was going up to 54. It was used on the shrapnell shell for the Skoda 7,5 cm Gebirgshaubitze M.14 which was produced for China. With the beginning of WW1 it was not deliviered and used by the austro-hungarian army for example on the alpine front against Italy.
I also thought about a skoda design but the thread is really small (37mm). I do not know much fuze with a thread of this size (old russian fuze for example).
And what about the scale, I thought the scale was higher as 54. The fuze is cut between the first graduation "0" and "50". There is still a wide space where the fuze is cut. Do you think there are only 4 graduations in this space ?
I found on a forum a picture of a Skoda for export and this fuze is a little different :
yes you are right I thought it is exactly this one from the photo. May be your's is for a little different gun. I found an other with 64 graduation, but it has a flat nose cap and is for a L/29 field gun.
