Can you not remove the pin from the existing spring and just use that?
-
Hmm ... I can't find anything with a pin like this. I guess with a lathe I could make the pin, then drill a hole in a regular mainspring and rivet the pin to it. Can't really see me doing that without a watchmaker's lathe, though. Am I going to have to shelve the watch because I can't replace the mainspring? There has to be another way. I wonder if I could cut off the end of the existing spring and use it as a catch for a modern manual-wind spring to hook on to?

Looking at the genuine Bergeon holder I expect the 0.8mm will be too big. Edit You should be able to check with the pins out of the holder if they pass through the surround to the jewel.
