Can anyone tell me how to get the correct part No. for a mainspring please.I have all the details of the spring but most sellers sell by the reference number.
Its for a mod 1908 Marquis size 16s and I assumed it would be easy to find. Are these thing rare or is it me looking in the wrong place.
I am new to this and being in the UK don't have all the information available yet.
I hope you all enjoyed a good Christmas

I think it's Waltham mainspring #2227 but better wait for an expert to confirm.

Gerald I'm not an expert but you are right #2227...Mike if you measure thickness of your spring you will know the springs strength...Thickness runs from .15 to .18 mm...These springs should not be hard to find...

Mike, if you need a mainspring chart, e-mail me and I'll e-mail you one.

Thanks for the help.
Brian the charts you so kindly emailed me will prove invaluable. I will also keep your address on file so that if I have any requirements in the future I will be able contact you.
It's good to be a member such a group of helpful people.

Thanks Mike, I'm glad I could help.

Mike I have a few of the #2227 mainsprings. If you can not find one let me no.

Thanks to all of you.I now have my head round it and all the information I need.

Brian,

Thank you for the charts... as much fun as I have with the forensic parts matching game.. the charts take a lot of the guess work out.

Thanks for your offer Billy. Will come back to you when I've investigated the watch.
