Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 910119 when importing or exporting electrically operated wrist-watches that have cases made of precious metal or are clad with precious metal. An example would be a luxury wrist-watch featuring a gold-plated case and a quartz movement.
This code specifically applies to wrist-watches without a mechanical display, distinguishing them from other watches that may have a traditional analog face. For instance, if you're dealing with a digital wrist-watch made of silver, this is the correct classification.
If your product is a pocket-watch or a stop-watch, you should look at other codes under 9101. For example, HS-6 910121 covers similar watches but includes those with mechanical displays.
When considering similar products, note that HS-6 910129 includes electrically operated wrist-watches with cases not made of precious metals, which would not apply to your luxury items.
