As of August 7, 2025, the U.S. placed a 39 percent tariff on Swiss-made watches. Add that to the base import duty of 4.5 percent and you’re looking at about 43.5 percent total.
Here’s what that means in real life: if you bought a $5,000 Swiss cloisonné watch, the tariff alone would add roughly $2,175. That brings the price to about $7,175 before you even get into shipping, insurance, or dealer markups.
Now here’s the good part. When you buy one of our U.S.-made cloisonné or enamel watches, which are powered by Swiss movements, you don’t have to think about tariffs at all. The price you see is the price you pay. You save thousands compared to an import, and you still get the joy of owning something incredibly rare and handcrafted that holds its value well and in some cases, dramatically appreciates over time.
We’re the only company in the country that offers a full collection of ready-to-buy cloisonné watches. Every piece is handcrafted. These watches aren’t just rare—they’re locally made and they arrive at your door without any import duties. You get transparent pricing, support local artistry, and still come out ahead financially.
On top of that, cloisonné is nearly impossible to find elsewhere in the U.S. We’re proud to offer something rare that also happens to be smart to buy.
If you’re looking to add something special to your collection, or to surprise someone you love with a holiday gift that carries both beauty and soul, there’s no better place to find it than right here in the Pacific Northwest.
