Import Tips
• Submit engineering drawings confirming balance wheel/hairspring regulation and partial assembly status to prevent misclassification as complete movements
• Label shipments clearly as 'watch movements only - not for other instruments' to distinguish from precision instrument parts
• Avoid common pitfall of including dial or hands, which could shift to heading 9114 as complete rough movements
