HS Code 9114.30 – Clock or watch parts; dials
HS code 9114.30 is the 6-digit subheading for clock or watch parts, dials. It is used for watch dials (brass), clock dials (enamel), luminous watch dials, skeleton watch dials and mother-of-pearl watch dials.
What HS 9114.30 covers
This HS code specifically covers dials for clocks and watches, which are critical components for time display and aesthetic appeal. The trade in dials is highly specialized, demanding precision manufacturing, intricate printing, and often delicate surface treatments. Importers are primarily watch and clock manufacturers, independent watchmakers, and repair centers globally, sourcing these components for assembly or restoration. Exporters typically come from countries with advanced capabilities in micro-mechanics, precision printing, and specialized surface finishing techniques. Key factors influencing trade include the material quality (e.g., brass, enamel, mother-of-pearl), the accuracy of indices and markings, the application of luminous materials, and the overall aesthetic design, which significantly impacts the final product's perceived value and market appeal. This market ranges from mass-produced standard dials to highly artisanal, hand-finished pieces for luxury timepieces.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
