RE: The tariff classification of quartz analog wrist watches from Japan.

Dear Mr. Coe:

In your letter of March 11, 1994, you requested a tariff classification ruling on three quartz analog wrist watches.

You have not submitted any samples, however, you have provided us with photographs and accompanying descriptions. The watches at issue are:

1. SKU No. F0120 Vendor No. PT 847/9105G - A man's battery operated quartz analog wrist watch having one jewel in the movement with a base metal case and a leather band.

2. SKU No. F0139 Vendor No. PT 847/9105L - A lady's battery operated quartz analog wrist watch having one jewel in the movement with a base metal case and a leather band.

3. SKU No. F1495 Vendor No. PT 847/9155 - A lady's battery operated quartz analog wrist watch having one jewel in the movement with a base metal case.

The applicable subheading for items 1 and 2 will be 9102.11.45, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Wrist watches, battery powered...With mechanical display only: Having no jewels or only one jewel in the movement: Other: Other. The rate of duty will be 40 cents each plus 8.5% on the case plus 2.8% on the strap, band or bracelet plus 5.3% on the battery.

In the absence of a sample, we will be unable to issue a binding ruling on the the third item. You may resubmit your request, with a sample, and we will be glad to respond.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
