HE 3" Rocket Fuze No 737 Mk1 (Service)

[Millsman]

My local EOD team dropped in to ask if I could value something they want to sell to raise funds for a service charity. It's a Clockwork Fuze for a WW2 3" Rocket (Ground to Air) for aerial burst plus impact. It's a No 737 Mk 1 (Service) fuze.

There is the clockwork fuze, a metal outer casing and black plastic / bekelite nose cone. The clockwork area is in excellent condition. 3 Photos attached.

I've never seen one before and suspect it's pretty rare. If anyone can give a value that I can pass on to the EOD guys.

Hi Spotter

I believe it to be the same beast. The misnumbering is my fault, writing it down to quickly.

Rare I suspect.
