Unknown fuze

Who can tell me what -part of a- fuze this is? The impeller is connected to a gear train that makes the outer pipe over the fuze body rotate. I suspect it to be underwater ordnance.

Looks like an early depth & roll recorder for a torpedo - can you remove the back cover to shown the internal mechanism?

Any markings?
