When to use Swiss Made Cost Rule History Lookup

Use this tool to return the published Swiss Made complete-watch, movement-value, movement-cost, development, transition, or 51-percent correction rule.

Choose a supported lookup focus or prepare the measured values, documented evidence and caller-selected limits requested. Use the exact field names and confirm their units or date format.

How to use Swiss Made Cost Rule History Lookup and understand its results

Choose a supported lookup focus or prepare the measured values, documented evidence and caller-selected limits requested. Use the exact field names and confirm their units or date format.
Enter ruleFocus using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
Read keyDate, ruleFocus, verifiedRule. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.

Input field	Meaning	Value type; see rules below	Requirement
ruleFocus	Swiss Made cost-rule focus	string; one of "completeWatch", "movementComponents", "movementCost", "development", "transition", "fiftyOnePercent"	Required

Select one supported focus from the input table and run the lookup. Match the exact case-sensitive enum value; no trimming, synonyms or free-text search is applied. Return the selected focus and its stored rule-history statement and period/context label. keyDate, where present, can be a historical date, period or contextual label rather than a parseable date.

result=stored entry for exact selected focus

Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
keyDate	Effective date or rule status	string
ruleFocus	Swiss Made cost-rule focus	string
verifiedRule	Published Swiss Made rule	string

{
  "input": {
    "ruleFocus": "completeWatch"
  },
  "output": {
    "keyDate": "revised ordinance, 1 January 2017",
    "ruleFocus": "completeWatch",
    "verifiedRule": "The revised Swiss Made rule requires at least 60 percent of complete-watch manufacturing cost to be generated in Switzerland; casing and crystal could be excluded only under the transitional provision ending 31 December 2018."

}

Limitations and assumptions

No cost records, current ordinance, movement origin or legal qualification are evaluated. The lookup organizes stored rule history rather than certifying an article. This is a fixed local table; it does not fetch sources or update statements at runtime.

Numeric inputs must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Extremely large text inputs are rejected. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use Watch Case Hallmark Role Lookup: Return the role, legal scope, or cross-reference caution for a watch-case hallmark, fineness, responsibility, or export mark without decoding symbols by color alone. For a complementary task, use Watch Brand Taxonomy Lookup: Separate conglomerate control, independent ownership, microbrand market usage, production scale, and manufacture depth without one universal tier boundary.
