Hello everyone out there!
I have some questions for you again! I got this part and I don't know much about it. It is a water bomb foot with the label on the transfer charge: WASSERBOMBEN VERSTÄRKUNGSLADUNG DM 17 LOS ITM 2 3/60. Who knows anything about it? What does the water bomb look like? Just find everything about it. Harry

Nice fuze, thanks for sharing.
Do you think the legend of my picture DM1 is ok ? The fuze seems to be the same as your DM12.
 
These two feet should be identical in construction. Thanks again for the help. Harry
