About HS Code 910819
This 'other' HS code for watch movements covers those that are complete and assembled, electrically operated by means of solar cells, but crucially, are without a mechanical display or a device for one, and also without an opto-electronic display. This category often includes core movements for advanced smartwatches or specialized timing modules where the display functionality is handled by a separate, integrated component or an external interface. Importers are typically manufacturers of high-tech wearables, hybrid smartwatches, or specialized electronic devices that require a compact, solar-powered timing engine without an integrated visual display. Exporters are high-tech component suppliers specializing in miniaturized electronics. Key aspects include compact design, low power consumption, and seamless integration capabilities with external processors and displays.
Products Under This Code
Smartwatch core movements (solar-powered, no integrated display), specialized timing modules (solar), sensor-integrated watch movements (solar), solar-powered movement for hybrid smartwatches (no display)
Real World Examples
Components for Garmin Instinct Solar (movement only), specialized modules for certain hybrid smartwatches (e.g., Fossil Hybrid HR movement core), custom solar-powered timing modules for industrial applications
Common Misclassification
This code is for movements *without* a display, differentiating it from 910811 (mechanical display) and 910812 (opto-electronic display); it's crucial to ensure no display mechanism is present.
Products Classified Under 9108.19
Industry
This code belongs to the Instruments & Apparatus industry.
Trade Overview
Japan and South Korea are significant exporters of these advanced, display-less solar watch movement components, primarily to manufacturers of smart devices and specialized electronics worldwide.
