Help with fuze No 206 series

Hello,

I try to identify two british fuzes for a long time and maybe I found the answer today.

-First question : No 206 Mk I is graduated from 0 to 225 but what is the last marked number on the ring ? I assume 220.

-Second question : what is the graduation of No 206 Mk II ?
I found on the internet pictures of a No 206 II with different graduations compared to No 206 I.
If the top and the base of this fuze are compatible I think the fuze I try to ID in a previous post is a no 206 Mk II : http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/85877-Unknown-fuze

Pictures from the web with different graduations compared to Mk1

Thank you for your help but I know these photos on the web, the cap seems to be original MkII but the fuze is really not a 206 (a machined inert fuze)
