Overview
This HTS subcategory, 9101.91.20.00, specifically classifies electrically operated wrist watches, pocket watches, and other watches where the primary display mechanism is opto-electronic. This means the time is shown through light-emitting diodes (LEDs), liquid crystal displays (LCDs), or similar electronic display technologies. The cases of these watches must be made of precious metal or metal clad with precious metal.
Distinguishing this from its sibling categories, which at this level would involve other types of electrically operated watches or watches with different case materials or display types, is crucial. The defining characteristic here is the *combination* of an opto-electronic display with a precious metal or clad precious metal case. Other categories might cover electrically operated watches with analog displays, or watches with similar case materials but non-opto-electronic displays.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories under 9101.91.20.00. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes at this level is solely on the precise definition: watches with precious metal cases that are electrically operated and feature only an opto-electronic display. Examples would include high-end digital watches or smartwatches with precious metal casings.
