what type is this washer?

I'm missing the washer in the attached image (automatic advance unit) so I'm trying to replace it with an equivalent.
The parts catalog describes the washer (0400.46.010) as a "Bent washer".
Is it a wave washer or a conical washer?

Thanks

In Italian, it's called a "Rondella curvata", Adrian. English name, 'Curved spring washer'. Looks like this:

Used on many/most of the singles, wide-case included.

(The turned-up edges face into the work-piece, i.e. away from the bolt or screw head. You can always use a dab of Loctite if you're concerned about the bolt coming lose).
