A guide for this piece: about $523, 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 woven mesh bracelet broadens the gold-coloured outline around the cream dial.
The Piece
Applied batons, Grand Seiko script and Chronometer wording sit above the lower jewel designation, while the rear photograph retains the lion medallion. The original reference is J14070 and the movement designation hand-wound. The individual numeric grade is 1, meaning junk or non-usable, rather than a statement about cosmetic wear alone. Neither the case colour nor the bracelet colour establishes solid gold, and dial chronometer wording does not certify current timing performance.
