Attached are some photos of comparisons between the clockwork mechanisms used in the American M130 fuze and the German 67 time fuzes for the butterfly bombs.
Whilst similar the dimensions are different and there are a lot of minor differences which can be spotted in the close up photos.
All INERT and safe.
