Hi all,

I know there has been a couple of these posted up before but thought I'd post mine up after finding it at a shop today.

Its in great condition. Complete and fully strippable. Dated 53, again no time markings on body.

i will post some more photos up when I return home.

Cheers,

Clive.

Nice fuze Clive, great condition.

Regarding the timing graduations, before the Mk 8 they had the markings, Mk 8 and after they didn't. Can't remember the exact reason why they stopped putting the markings on, I will try and look through the info I have and see what I can come up with.

Not much about it but does mention on the Mk 8 and after that there were no graduation markings needed due to the type of fuze setting machine used. At least that's what I make of it.
