Capture of Mametz
During the Capture of Mametz, Davies and Thomas was sent to deliver a message to a general. Thomas was gunned down to death when the German forces ambushed the 38th Infantry Division. Davies was extremely guilted by the accident and kept Thomas' tags with him.

Life in the United States
Shortly after the war, Davies moved to the United States of America and served as one of Thomas Edison's scientists. Over the decade, Davies worked on his divine mission to create a time machine to prevent the tragedy of Alun Thomas from happening.

Maiden Voyage
"Time travel is my divine mission."

- Gwyn Davies

On November 7. 1925, Davies left Edison Labs and encountered two "admirers", who in fact stole the blueprints to his time machine. Unfortunately, the two were unable to replicate the machine due to the lack of supplies and decided to steal Davies' machine instead.

Later that day, the Legends infiltrated Edison Labs in search of the final part of the machine, hoping to complete the machine. They were caught by Thomas Edison and Davies was placed in Bellevue Hospital for his insane idea of time travel. Thankfully. Sara Lance was able to locate him and reveal her identity as a time traveler. Davies was in disbelief and refused to accept her rescue. though changing his mind when she promised to save Alun Thomas once he successfully assisted them.

Once they returned to the Davies' residence, they completed the machine and prepared to jump to 2021. Meanwhile, Astra Logue casted a spell on the city's power supply, shutting down all electricity to prevent Davies' death in the original timeline. Gideon soon explained the situation to the Legends and began the time travelling process according to her instructions, preventing Davies' death while evading a replicated Waverider, a Timeship from the distant future.

On November 7, 1925 of the original timeline, Dr. Gwyn Davies executed a time travel experiment. His concept later laid the foundation for the concept and was able to lead to the creation of the Time Bureau nearly a century later. However, on the night of the experiment, the machine was damaged from electrical overload and he passed away during the accident.
