About watch straps, watch bands, watch bracelets and parts thereof
HS code 9113 covers a diverse range of products essential to the watch industry. These items, including watch straps, bands, and bracelets, play a crucial role in the functionality and aesthetics of timepieces. As a key component of the broader 9101 Watches and clocks industry, the 9113 category represents a significant segment of the global trade in luxury and fashion accessories.
Production process
The production of watch straps, bands, and bracelets typically involves a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern manufacturing techniques. Skilled artisans may hand-stitch leather or weave intricate textile patterns, while automated processes handle the cutting, shaping, and assembly of components. Advanced materials, such as stainless steel, titanium, and high-performance polymers, are increasingly used to enhance durability and aesthetic appeal.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the 9113 industry include a variety of raw materials, such as leather, textiles, metals, and plastics. Specialized tools and machinery, including sewing machines, stamping presses, and finishing equipment, are also essential for the production process. Additionally, skilled labor, particularly in the areas of design, pattern-making, and quality control, is a critical input for this industry.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the 9113 industry are the watch straps, bands, and bracelets themselves, which are then consumed by the 9101 Watches and clocks industry. These components are used to attach and secure watches to the wearer's wrist, as well as to enhance the overall style and appearance of the timepiece. The 9113 industry also produces a range of related accessories, such as buckles, clasps, and other hardware, which may be used in conjunction with the main watch strap or band products.
