A guide for this piece: about $2,913, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

An oval dial tilts within a curved diamond-bordered case on this Délices SM, with stretched Roman numerals following its outline.
The Piece
The blue hands, white-metal bracelet and side screws are visible in close views, alongside the back markings. The historical WG800004 account records a July 2026 document for adding one bracelet link and cleaning the bracelet. That is not a claim that the movement was overhauled during that intervention. Earlier movement inspection, refinishing and battery replacement are separate historical statements with no fresh performance test supplied. The 30.8 mm width and 36.1 mm lug-inclusive height describe different axes, not competing model diameters.

Condition
Historical A grade does not remove the reported dial dirt, fine glass rubbing, inner-bezel impact near eleven-thirty and dullness near one. The back has lines, and the bracelet’s side screws show marks. The listed service statement is an accessory; no box or further guarantee document is independently included. See every photograph before deciding; they are part of the description. See Japanese condition ranks.
Authenticity & Care
Keep the watch dry pending a current seal and water-resistance assessment; historical inspection is not a new pressure test. Have a qualified watchmaker check winding, timekeeping, fastening and any loose or chipped glass before wear. Use only a soft, non-abrasive cloth on secure exterior surfaces, and do not open the case or polish gem settings at home. Historical documents require matching to the actual reference and serial; they do not establish current performance or transfer another business’s service terms.
Delivery from Japan
Ask about protective packing, availability and destination requirements before dispatch; no unverified transport or maker-service promise is made.
