HTS heading 9102 is a 4-digit product category for wrist watches, pocket watches, other watches, and stopwatches that are not classified in heading 9101. It groups these timepieces at a broad level; heading 9101 generally covers watches with cases made of, or clad with, precious metal or precious-metal material.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, first identify the watch’s basic type and construction. The tariff schedule then narrows the classification using details such as whether it is a wristwatch, pocket watch, or other watch; the type of movement or display where relevant; and the material or composition of the case and other parts. Read the full 8-digit description and any applicable chapter or section notes rather than choosing by product name alone.
What to check
- Confirm that the watch belongs in heading 9102 rather than heading 9101 by checking the case material and the heading notes.
- Identify the watch type, such as wristwatch, pocket watch, or stopwatch, and document how it operates and displays time.
- Verify the case and relevant component materials using product specifications, bills of materials, and supplier records.
- Compare every candidate 8-digit description in the current HTS and follow its subheading wording and notes.
- Ask a customs broker or classification specialist to review unusual designs, mixed materials, smart or multifunction watches, or incomplete specifications.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
