A guide for this piece: about $684, 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.

Day and month windows sit above a moonphase display on this Datora 805.

The Piece

The photographed dial also carries chronograph registers and a perimeter date scale, giving several separate mechanisms to assess rather than a single time display. The recovered individual description records steel, silver dial colour and hand winding. It asserts original movement and hands, but that assertion has not been independently established. Crucially, it says no overhaul was performed during the stated custody period, earlier maintenance and polishing histories are unknown, and no pressure test was carried out. A flat-position+35 seconds-per-day reading with 249-degree amplitude remains a historical reference, not present operating evidence.

Condition

No separate Japanese letter grade is given. Scratches are recorded on the crystal, case, back and buckle. Age-related dial stains or discolouration and changes to hands and indices are explicitly cautioned. The historical rate and amplitude cannot establish that the calendar, moonphase or chronograph now works correctly. See every photograph before deciding; they are part of the description. See Japanese condition ranks.

Authenticity & Care

Keep the watch dry until its present seals and operating condition have been examined. Confirm the correct setting and winding sequence for the actual movement with a qualified watchmaker. A historical inspection or repair does not establish current rate, reserve, battery life or water resistance. No transferable maker or third-party service coverage is promised. Do not operate calendar correctors or chronograph controls until the correct sequence and mechanism state have been checked. The moonphase image does not prove correct advancement or present calendar synchronisation.
