thanks to 2 well known friends, it has now been confirmed that the 2 fuzes that I mentioned some time ago are from the Italian human torpedo 'Chariots'. These must be very rare as apparently non of the surviving Chariots have original fuzes fitted.

Attached are photos showing the clocks. One of them will probably appear on the new quickfireauctions site in the fairly near future.

as you can see Darren the clocks are in beautiful condition and still smell of their light oil.
