Import Tips
• Include manufacturer specs confirming jewel count, dimensions, and mechanical regulation to prevent misclassification as parts
• Ensure movements are not entered with cases, as cased watches shift to headings 9101/9102
• Document foreign content value for potential insular possession duty benefits under U.S. notes
