Last updated: August 2026 dataSwitzerland leads US imports of complete assembled watch movements not elsewhere specified, with Germany and Japan also significant — a supplier profile reflecting the global concentration of precision horological manufacturing in a handful of countries. Classification within this heading is among the most granular in Chapter 91, with 10-digit lines differentiated by movement diameter (33.8 mm or less vs. over 33.8 mm), jewel count (no jewels, 1 jewel, up to 7 jewels, up to 17 jewels, over 17 jewels), and unit value. Importers must obtain the manufacturer's caliber data sheet confirming all three parameters — size, jewel count, and transaction value — before filing entry, as errors in any one dimension can result in misclassification across multiple tariff lines.

The heading applies a two-axis matrix: first, movement diameter (at or under 33.8 mm vs. over 33.8 mm) and second, jewel count (no jewels or 1 jewel; over 1 up to 7; over 7 up to 17; over 17). For example, a movement measuring 30 mm with 21 jewels falls under 9108909000, while a movement measuring 36 mm with 21 jewels falls under 9108909500. Importers must confirm both the measured diameter and the functional jewel count from the manufacturer's caliber specification.
Yes. For movements in the 7-to-17-jewel range, a value threshold applies — specifically for movements measuring over 33.8 mm (9108908000 covers those valued not over $15 each). Importers should ensure that the customs value used for this comparison is the CBP-appraised transaction value, not a list or suggested retail price, and should document the per-unit value clearly on the commercial invoice.
