Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has partnered with California-based watch brand Skywatch to create a limited edition timepiece for charity. The Skywatch X Love Button watch will benefit the Love Button Global Movement, a non-profit organization with a mission to encourage acts of kindness and work with organizations and individuals that help to transform and improve lives.
A significant portion of the proceeds from each sale will be donated to Love Button, with the total donation from the sales of the limited edition watch expected to reach $250,000. The watch, which features a classic white design with the Love Button logo, is available for purchase on the Skywatch website.
As a long term ambassador for the Love Button Global Movement, Martin immediately signed on as co-designer for the collaboration. He shares, "I’m really happy to be involved with this collaboration between Skywatch and Love Button for these great watches, and I believe very much in the causes which will benefit from it."
