The Vanity Fair On Time Philanthropy Portfolio

Watches are good. Everyone can agree on that; they’re beautiful and precious, they attest to human ingenuity and they perform a useful function (especially useful if your phone battery has died and you can’t get the time from a screen). However, watches can also do good. From natural disaster relief to tribal land rights, drug rehabilitation programmes to vaccinations, the horological industry has been fighting the good fight. With that in mind, Vanity Fair On Time decided to shine a light on an oft-overlooked selection of watch lovers and ambassadors: the philanthropists.
