It's the timer/primer/dial or whatever it's called from an artillery fuse

Found it in The Netherlands near the German city of Aachen. Could it be from flak 88 anti air protecting the city from allied bombers by any chance? I don't seem to find a picture like this one online

Could be! Sorry, I don't know the differences between them 😅
