A guide for this piece: about $13,129, 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.

Eleven textured anchor links distinguish this Hermès GM bracelet in 18K yellow gold with a mass of 89.7 g.
The Piece
The rope-like surfaces belong to the links themselves, not simply the toggle. Its recorded 24 cm length and 19 cm inner circumference describe different things; neither should disappear into a single ambiguous size. A maker box and repair report are recorded, although the report is not shown separately in the available photographs. Robert Dumas introduced the Chaîne d'Ancre bracelet in 1938, translating a ship's anchor chain into jewellery. The divided oval links and toggle make that mechanical idea visible. This is model history, not a production date or a documented ownership history for this example.

Condition
Grade A, meaning little apparent use and no conspicuous damage in the written assessment. Minor scuffs are expressly allowed, and photographs may not show every mark. The repair report does not establish what work was performed or when; request its contents and a present clasp check before wear. See Japanese condition ranks for grading context.
Authenticity & Care
Keep the gold alloy away from chlorine bleach and household cleaners, and store the bracelet separately to limit contact scratches. Have a qualified jeweller inspect link joins and fastening before regular wear.
