18K Gold Rolex Datejust Wristwatch with Oyster Bracelet from Japan

This luxury wristwatch features an 18K yellow gold case and matching Oyster bracelet, powered by a mechanical movement with 25 jewels exceeding the 17-jewel threshold. It falls under HTS 9101.29.80.00 because the case is wholly of precious metal (18K gold) and the strap/bracelet is entered with the watch, meeting the specific classification for jeweled movements with precious metal cases and accessories.

Import Tips

Verify gold karat purity with assay certificates to confirm precious metal case classification under heading 9101

Provide documentation proving over 17 jewels in movement and that strap/bracelet is classifiable with the watch per U.S. note 2

Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no base metal inlay exceeds precious metal cladding limits; declare value separately for watch and strap
