A guide for this piece: about $280, 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.

A vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual ladies' watch in a steel case, with a silver dial, Arabic numerals, subsidiary seconds at six and a hand-wound movement, on a black leather strap.
The Piece
Rolex was founded in London in 1905 and moved to Geneva in 1919, and in 1926 it introduced the Oyster, the first of its waterproof wristwatch cases.
The small steel Oyster has a screw-down case back, a coin-edge bezel and a crown with the Rolex emblem. The silver dial is signed Rolex, with Arabic numerals, aged luminous hands and a recessed subsidiary seconds dial at six.
The watch is running. The strap is a black crocodile-patterned leather strap and it is not original. The dial and case show the marks of age and use, which the photographs record. The photographs cover the front, both sides on the strap and the case back.
