Import Tips
• Include balance wheel/hairspring certification proving timekeeping function, distinguishing from excluded Chapter 85 components
• Check for insulated possession producer licenses if claiming duty-free quota under US Note (b)
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as 'parts' - ensure entry as complete assembled movement
