Water resistance
Your Kennsen watch leaves our premises tested water-resistant to 50m (165ft). The gaskets that ensure this protection can however be damaged over time or by shocks. Like all watch manufacturers, we recommend a watchmaker checks the water resistance once per year (it’s not a big job).
While we designed our watches to cope with getting wet and the occasional forgetful dip in the handbasin or swimming pool, it was not built for swimming with. We strongly advise you to refrain from using the chronograph pushers or the crown when the watch is wet as this may let water into the watch.
If the watch gets wet in the sea, give it a short rinse under warm tap water to remove the salt.
Shocks
Your Kennsen watch meets the Swiss watchmaking norms for shock resistance. However you may have been told as a child not to drop watches – that still holds true. Try to avoid shocks and knocks that could damage your watch… or more importantly, yourself.
