Import Tips
• Provide authenticated movement specs showing jewel count and dimensions; discrepancies lead to reclassification
• Confirm base metal bracelet plating doesn't qualify as precious metal per chapter note 1 exclusions
• Maintain assembly records proving strap integration to avoid parts classification under 9114
