The Origin

創業

In 1870, the company founder Tsuneshichi Arai established the Omiya Tsuneshichi Arai store and started importing and selling clocks and clock materials.
In 1877, he set up a clock manufacturing plant and successfully produced wall clocks and octagonal clocks, establishing himself as a pioneer of Japan's clock-making industry.
The shop, with its modern brick-built construction, was popularly known as "the brick Kintsune".

創業

In 1877, company founder Tsuneshichi Arai established a clock manufacturing plant where he successfully produced wall clocks and octagonal clocks and began mass-producing clocks.
In doing so, he proved himself to be a pioneer of Japan's clock-making industry.

創業

As part of the work involved in incorporation in 1947, Kintsune Seiki manufactured and sold around 100
bench lathes for use in machining clock components.
The cross-section of those historic bench lathes was adopted as the company logo as a symbol of the
hopes for rebuilding what Japan had lost during the war.
