Since its founding, Kentex has cultivated watch exterior technology and design capabilities.

A minesweeper group model is now available from the Maritime Self-Defense Force Solar Pro! Equipped with a reliable Japanese-made solar-powered chronograph movement, there is no need to worry about the battery suddenly running out, and there is no need to replace the battery. It has a 200M diving waterproof performance that complies with the ISO6425 diver's watch standard, and is equipped with a day-date calendar that reflects the real voices of sailors who say, ``When you go on a cruise, you lose your sense of the days of the week.'' In addition to the diver's bezel with anti-reverse rotation function, the inner rotating bezel is equipped with a compass, allowing you to determine your direction based on the time and the position of the sun, even in the open ocean where there are no landmarks.

What is the minesweeper group? The minesweeper group's main mission is mine warfare and amphibious warfare. Previously, he was in charge of mine warfare in order to ensure the safety of maritime traffic from the approximately 65,700 mines that remained in Japan's coastal waters after the war, but in August 2013 he was also given charge of amphibious warfare in order to respond to changes in the international situation surrounding Japan. In 1950, at the request of the Allied Forces, it was dispatched to clear mines laid during the Korean War, and in 1991, it was dispatched overseas to minesweep in the Persian Gulf after the Gulf War, making it the Self-Defense Force's first international contribution.
