Cross for 40 years of service, who can say more?

[Carlo]

Good morning everyone, I recently purchased this beautiful 40 year service cross, in perfect condition and marked Zimbler in the ring.

I know that this decoration was introduced in 1890 and awarded until the end of the war, being a relatively long period of awarding I was wondering if there was any detail that could allow me to understand more or less in which year it was produced.
