Import Tips
• Solar cell must be integral to watch movement, not separate, to qualify as electrically operated watch
• Gold karat must be 10K or higher for precious metal classification; lower falls to base metal headings
• Document strap matching criteria under U.S. note 2 to prevent separate classification in 9113
