A guide for this piece: about $2,170, 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.

Rounded quilted links meet a plain square case on this yellow-gold Chanel MatelasséH0008, with a black dial and dark cabochon-shaped crown.
The Piece
Chanel entered wristwatchmaking with the Première in 1987. The quilting is formed in articulated metal links, not padded leather. Small recessed points interrupt the reflective diamond pattern, while the rear carries gold and copyright marks. This H0008 is a separate record from the similarly styled Matelassé with a 90.2 g (3.18 oz) mass. That other watch's weight, dimensions or accessories should not be transferred here.

Authenticity & Care
Use a soft, dry cloth and keep the watch away from perfume, solvents, strong magnets and abrupt temperature changes. Have present operation, crown, clasp and seals assessed by a qualified watchmaker before regular wear or water exposure. Keep the watch dry until assessed. Have the articulated links and clasp checked without polishing away their quilted relief; discuss repair-parts availability before treating a battery change as a complete remedy.
