Import Tips

• Verify movement dimensions do not exceed 50 mm and test power reserve to confirm under 47 hours without rewinding for proper classification

• Include detailed movement specifications and assembly diagrams in documentation to avoid misclassification as battery-operated clocks

• Ensure clocks are not assembled with electronic components from Chapter 85 to prevent reclassification
