Import Tips
• Include movement blueprint or spec sheet confirming jewel count, beat rate, and automatic winding function
• Ensure no precious metal case components to avoid confusion with finished watches in 9101/9102
• For high-value Swiss movements, prepare for potential country-of-origin scrutiny under GSP or trade agreements
