9108.90.90.00 - Measuring 33.8 mm or less

This HTS classification, 9108.90.90.00, specifically covers watch movements that are complete and assembled, fall under the "other" category for watch movements with over 17 jewels, and importantly, measure 33.8 mm or less in their largest dimension. These are typically smaller, intricate mechanical or quartz watch movements designed for a wide range of timepieces where size is a critical factor, such as dress watches, ladies' watches, or specialized compact instruments.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 9108.90.95.00, by its precise dimensional limitation. While both are "other" types of watch movements with over 17 jewels, 9108.90.90.00 applies only to those movements whose largest measurement does not exceed 33.8 mm. The sibling category would encompass movements that meet the other criteria (complete, assembled, "other" type, over 17 jewels) but are larger than this specified limit.

As this classification represents a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 9108.90.90.00 rests entirely on confirming that the watch movement is complete, assembled, has more than 17 jewels, and its largest dimension measures 33.8 mm or less. This strict adherence to the dimensional criteria is key to accurate import and export declarations.
