I need a little help. Can anyone tell me which mainspring and balance staff I need for this watch? Thanks. -John

John,
486 is a thirteenth model 16s, so it should use a #817 mainspring and #861 staff .

Hope this helps.

John,

I have both the staff and mainspring if you need them.

Thanks

Jon-
Thank you for the offer. I have the mainspring, but will likely need a staff. When I have the watch in hand I will know for sure. -John
