A guide for this piece: about $1,929, 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.

Two overlapping subdials form a figure-eight arrangement against the brown dial of this Grande Seconde.

The Piece

It is J003033442, a petrified-wood dial, blue hands and a K18 pink-gold case. The November 2022 domestic purchase date belongs to the paperwork and is not a manufacture date. The two white subdials and blue hands should be inspected separately from the brown surrounding material.

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. The dial and strap require material-specific assessment before cleaning.
