Does anyone know the order of assembly for a two part mainspring on a 1962 Timex Self-Winding watch?

I came up with 3 ideas and tried to draw them.

Also attached is a photo of the mainspring wound in configuration 1.

Maybe @JerseyMo would know.

I appreciate the diagram and clarification on terminology. Since this is a notch-less barrel, I did some more digging.

I found a comment from @Jon. Based on the slides, I think configuration 1 is correct (which is how I currently have it in the photo). Can anyone confirm?
