As the Olympic Opening Ceremonies begin today, we are reminded that throughout Olympic history, it is about more than sporting events. The Olympic Games are about creating legacies.
A Legacy can reveal itself in many different ways. It may come from your character and the life you lead. It may be a reflection of your faith, ethics, and core values. It may be monetary. Or a Legacy may be a wrist or pocket watch that tells a unique story and is passed on from generation to generation.
Brian LaViolette started wearing his first watch when he was four years old. As he grew older, so did his watch collection, and by the time he was 15 years old, he had seven of them.
Brian’s watch collection is the inspiration behind the 2024 LaViolette Foundation Legacy Watch Program, a unique concept that brings watchmakers and watch enthusiasts together to serve a higher purpose–to support a new generation of future leaders as they continue their educational journeys and build their own legacies. To find out more details please visit Legacy Watch Program. This program is in addition to a watch auction being held through Christie's this December.
Here are just a few of the Legacy watches that are part of the program... including several from past Olympic Games!
