About heading 9101

Wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches, including stop watches, with case of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal

Heading 9101 covers wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches, including stop watches, when the case is precious metal or metal clad with precious metal. It splits first by power source: electrically operated (9101.11 and 9101.19), automatic winding (9101.21), and other, meaning hand-wound or non-electric (9101.29), with a residual group (9101.91 and 9101.99) for non-wrist watches. Within each group the lines turn on display type, the number of jewels in the movement, movement value or size, and whether straps are entered and classifiable with the watch.
