Import Tips
• Automatic movements with high jewel counts need precise documentation to avoid over 17 jewel reclassification
• Steel bracelet plating (if any) must be disclosed; gold-plated shifts to higher duty subheading
• Version 4 (2026) HTS requires updated movement valuation methodology per CBP rulings
