9101.91.80 - Other

This HTS category, 9101.91.80, encompasses electrically operated wrist watches, pocket watches, and other watches, with cases made of precious metal or metal clad with precious metal, which do not fall under the preceding subheading. The key defining characteristic of this subcategory is the presence of an electric mechanism for timekeeping, differentiating it from purely mechanical watches.

Unlike the sibling category 9101.91.40, which specifically covers watches with no jewels or only one jewel in the movement, this category 9101.91.80 includes electrically operated watches that may contain more than one jewel or, conversely, have no jewels as long as they are electrically operated and their case material aligns with the parent chapter. The "Other" designation signifies that it captures all remaining electrically operated watches within this specific material classification that are not otherwise enumerated.

As this represents a leaf node within the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 9101.91.80 is on precisely identifying electrically operated timepieces with precious metal or clad precious metal cases that are not specifically detailed in prior subheadings. The absence of jewels or the number of jewels, when present, becomes a secondary consideration if the watch is otherwise electrically operated and fits the case material criteria.
