Import Tips
• Document exact jewel count (24 for NH35A) and automatic winding mechanism to avoid reclassification to manual wind headings
• Check for foreign component origins if from US insular possessions to claim duty-free entry under quota limits
• Ensure no escapement-less construction, which would exclude from Chapter 91 per notes
