RE: The tariff classification of wrist watches from Hong Kong

Dear Ms. Miller:

In your letter dated October 24, 2002 you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Style WT0003, the Presto Cee Digital, is an opto-electronic wrist watch which incorporates a display including time, date and chronograph. The watch has a plastic watch band with ventilated wrist grips and is water resistant to 30 meters.

The applicable subheading for the WT0003 wrist watch will be 9102.12.80, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches; wrist watches, electrically operated, whether or not incorporating a stop watch facility; with opto-electronic display only; other. The rate of duty will be free.

The applicable subheading for the plastic watch band for the WT0003 wrist watch will be 9102.12.40, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches; wrist watches, electrically operated, whether or not incorporating a stop watch facility; with opto-electronic display only; straps, bands or bracelets entered with watches of subheading 9012.12.80 and classifiable therewith pursuant to additional U.S. note 2 to this chapter; all the foregoing whether or not attached to such watches at the time of entry; other. The rate of duty will be free.

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

We are unable to issue a ruling on Style WT0009, Presto Cee Analog. In order to issue a classification ruling, we need to know the type of movement and the number of jewels incorporated in the movement. When this information is available, you may resubmit your request for a classification ruling on Style WT0009.

Your samples are being returned as requested.

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Barbara Kiefer at 646-733-3019.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
