Import Tips

Provide COSC chronometer certification references to establish precision watch end-use justifying chapter 91

Declare exact alloy composition (Nivarox, Elinvar) as undervaluation of specialty materials triggers audits

For sets with balance wheels, use GRI 3 rules carefully; individual springs maintain 9114 classification
