Import Tips
• Include technical specs confirming quartz crystal regulation and electrical operation for CBP verification
• Declare exact unit value with invoices showing retail/wholesale pricing to meet 'over $5' threshold
• Avoid common pitfall of importing with clock hands/dial attached, which may classify as complete clocks under 9105
