The development of Kennsen

One of the benefits of learning oneself is that it permits a multidisciplinary approach and with that comes original solutions to watchmaking’s challenges: this is what we do at Kennsen.

Here concepts are initially developed in the old-fashioned way with pencil and paper. When solutions are clear 2D and 3D CAD design and prototyping begins and, where appropriate, patents are written. Final manufacturing and assembly is based in the Vallée de Joux.

Innovative but with a strong respect for traditional watching, Kennsen builds lasting, quality, Swiss made watches for those who share our interest in the art and science of horology.

We take great satisfaction in bringing a concept to life and we trust our watches will also bring their owners much enjoyment over the years.
