Import Tips
• Document beat error tolerance specs to prove 'rough' status versus complete, tested movements in 9108
• Ensure no escapement omission as per chapter note (e), which excludes certain heading 8412 articles
• Batch imports may trigger quota scrutiny under US notes for insular products; maintain production records
