A guide for this piece: about $1,676, 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 Rolex Submariner without date, reference 14060, in steel with a black dial and a black aluminium bezel, made in 1996 and overhauled in Japan before sale.
The Piece
Rolex was founded in London in 1905 and moved to Geneva in 1919, and the Submariner, introduced in 1953 as one of the first wristwatches rated to 100 m (330 ft), became the house's diving reference.
The reference 14060 is the Submariner without a date, so the black dial keeps its symmetrical row of luminous round markers and a triangle at twelve. The bezel is black aluminium and turns one way, the crown screws down, and the case and Oyster bracelet are steel.
The case is 40 mm (1.57 in) across, with the automatic calibre 3000 and water resistance to 300 m (1,000 ft). The serial letter T places it in 1996. It is shown on its bracelet without box or papers.
