About watch or clock movements, complete, unassembled or partly assembled (movement sets); incomplete watch or clock movements, assembled; rough watch or clock movements

HS code 9110 covers a wide range of watch and clock movements, including complete, unassembled or partly assembled movements, as well as incomplete assembled movements and rough movements. This industry plays a crucial role in the global timepiece market, providing the essential components that power both mechanical and quartz-based watches and clocks. As a key supplier to the 9101 Wrist watches, pocket watches, and other watches, including stop watches and 9102 Clocks with watch movements, excluding clocks of heading 9101 industries, the 9110 sector is an integral part of the broader timekeeping ecosystem.

Production process

The production of watch and clock movements under HS code 9110 involves a range of specialized techniques and processes. This typically begins with the manufacture of individual components, such as gears, springs, and escapement mechanisms, using precision machinery and tooling. These components are then carefully assembled, either manually or through automated processes, to create the complete movement. In the case of unassembled or partly assembled movements, the components may be packaged together for final assembly by the end-user. The production of rough movements involves the initial stages of the manufacturing process, where the basic structure and functionality of the movement is established.

Production inputs

The 9110 industry relies on a variety of inputs, including high-precision metals, such as steel and brass, for the manufacture of movement components. Specialized machinery, including CNC machines, jeweling tools, and assembly equipment, are also essential for the production of watch and clock movements. Additionally, the industry may utilize various lubricants, jewels, and other specialized materials to ensure the smooth and accurate operation of the movements.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the 9110 industry are the watch and clock movements themselves, which are then incorporated into a wide range of timepieces, including wristwatches, pocket watches, and clocks. These movements may be sold to 9101 Wrist watches, pocket watches, and other watches, including stop watches and 9102 Clocks with watch movements, excluding clocks of heading 9101 manufacturers, as well as to the 9103 Instrument panel clocks and clocks of a similar type for vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft or vessels industry, which utilizes specialized clock movements for various applications.
