Import Tips
• Document movement cost separately on commercial invoice; CBP values assembled watch movement for >$15 threshold
• Confirm not 'electrically operated' per chapter notes to avoid 9102.2X classification
• For diver's watches, ensure water resistance claims match specifications to prevent misclassification as toy watches
