A guide for this piece: about $665, 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.

Condition
No separate Japanese letter grade is supplied. Scratches on the case, back, bracelet and buckle. Age-related dial staining or discolouration, deterioration of hands and markers, and wear to crystal and metal were explicitly cautioned. An originality assertion is not a substitute for documenting those changes. See Japanese condition ranks.
Authenticity & Care
Use a clean microfibre cloth and keep the watch dry pending a current seal and water-resistance assessment. Confirm the correct setting and winding procedure for the actual movement with a qualified watchmaker. No transferable maker or third-party service coverage is promised. Have the bracelet, clasp, seals and movement assessed before regular wear.
