Import Tips
• Document presence of balance wheel/hairspring to prove it's a regulated watch movement per chapter definition
• Avoid common pitfall of including dial/hands which would shift to complete movement classification
• For US insular possession imports, track foreign component value percentages for applicable duty rates
