Tom Brady & Betteridge Sell Watches for Charity
by Scott La Du on November 4th, 2010
Movado Tom Brady Limited Edition Chronograph, 18k Rose Gold, $17,500, comes with handwritten note from Tom about the watch
Over the last few years, it has been my privilege to get to know Tom Brady. He is an extraordinarily talented athlete for sure, but something many people may not know about him is just how wonderfully generous he is as well.
A few days ago, Tom, an avid watch aficionado, asked me if I would help him sell two of his most treasured possessions to benefit one of his beloved charities:
Best Buddies is a non-profit organization “dedicated to establishing a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).”
All of Betteridge’s proceeds from these sales will go to this fine charity.
If you are interested in purchasing either of these spectacular timepieces, please call me at (203)869-0124, e-mail me at scott@betteridge.com, or come visit Betteridge at 117 Greenwich Avenue.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Lady Duetto, Retail $20,500
Jaeger-LeCoultre is one of a select few watch manufacturers that stand at the pinnacle of watchmaking.
Their rich history of horological innovations is immense, so it is not surprising that this venerated company recently launched my favorite new ladies’ watch: a cool, fun and sophisticated timepiece known as the Reverso Squadra Duetto.
It is the perfect watch for a woman who is looking to stand out from the crowd.
