Import Tips
• Document balance wheel and hairspring regulation to distinguish from quartz; customs may require technical drawings for mechanical verification
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring total shipment value instead of per-unit; CBP audits low-value movements frequently
• Check for Insular Possessions exemptions if applicable, but ensure foreign component values comply with US note thresholds
