Kennett is a Glasgow, UK based watch brand founded by Tom Kennett. A market leader in the category of entry level to middle price (£125 to £600) category, Kennett produces quartz as well as mechanical timepieces featuring stylish design and offer versatile performance. Kennet timepieces have been appreciated by various lifestyle magazines, celebrities and sports persons around the world.
The idea to create the Kennett brand came to Tom’s mind in 2009, when he was toiling with the idea of what to buy his father for his 60th birthday. Interestingly, his father had every gadget you could imagine and was a patented inventor himself. However, both Tom and his father shared a passion for timepieces and that became the inspiration for Tom to design his first watch (The Savro) for his father. The Savro design was an instant hit and brand ‘Kennett’ was born.
Tom left his position working in father Jonathan’s high tech company in the US, investing all his time and savings into making an impact in the timepiece industry.
The Kennett ethos is simple, emanating from Tom’s rich family heritage in innovation and inventions. Tom’s great grandfather was a developmental chemist and produced some of the first synthetic plastics, his grandfather invented automatic farm equipment and his father has invented some of the most advanced printing technology.
The brand proudly displays its tagline – ‘British at heart’; this Island’s style heritage is embodied into each of its collections. Its UK design Studio is based in the Kennett Headquarters where the assembly and distribution carry out.
Kennett creates versatile designs at affordable prices without compromising quality and this philosophy and strive for excellence drives its ongoing success; at both at home and overseas.
