Last updated: August 2026 dataComplete watch movements imported in unassembled or partly assembled form — commonly called movement sets — are classified here rather than with finished assembled movements, a distinction that carries significant implications for downstream assembly operations and duty treatment. A single 10-digit line, 9110110000, covers the entire heading, so classification itself is straightforward, but the commercial and regulatory question centers on whether a movement qualifies as 'complete' in all its parts even if not yet put together. These movement sets are a key input for watch assembly facilities that finish and case movements domestically.

A movement set (911011) contains all the parts needed to constitute a complete movement but has not yet been assembled or is only partly assembled — all components are present. An incomplete assembled movement (911012) has been put together but is missing one or more functional components. The distinction affects both classification and the downstream assembly process.
While there is no dedicated permit regime for watch movement sets, importers should be prepared to provide technical specifications confirming that all components of a complete movement are present in the shipment, as CBP may request this to verify the 'complete' designation and distinguish the goods from incomplete assembled movements or spare parts.
