Among the standouts were his helmet from his final game with the New England Patriots in 2019 and the game ball from his historic NFL passing yards record-breaking performance. However, it was his watch collection that truly stole the spotlight. Let's dive into the five most extravagant watches from Brady's auctioned collection.



1. Rolex Daytona Paul Newman 'John Player Special'


Final Bidding: $1.1 million

The auction's showpiece was this yellow gold chronograph wristwatch from 1969. Brady famously donned it during his retirement ceremony at Gillette Stadium in September 2023 when Patriots owner Robert Kraft publicly announced that he was to be inducted into the team's Hall of Fame. With an estimate between $600,000 and $900,000, it far surpassed estimates and proved to be the most successful of the evening's offerings.

2. Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 'The Roast'


Final Bid: $720,000

This white gold and diamond-set flying tourbillon wristwatch made a glittering appearance. Brady sported it during his Netflix roast, "The Greatest Roast of All Time," in April 2024. The piece's elegance and connection to this memorable event ensured it fetched nearly double its low estimate.



3. Richard Mille RM35-03 'Baby Nadal'


Final Bid: $384,000

This modern marvel presents the artistry of Richard Mille with its striking blue-and-white quartz TPT skeletonized design, though rarely seen on Brady's wrist. The intricate mechanics and lightweight construction did a great job of holding captive the bidders.



4. Richard Mille Carbon TPT Flyback Chronograph


Final Bid: $336,000

This carbon and titanium watch was the epitome of cutting-edge engineering with stunning aesthetics. There is no public record of Brady wearing it, but the robust design and exclusivity ensured it was highly contested at the auction.



5. Richard Mille Titanium Split Seconds Chronograph


Final Bid: $288,000

The skeletonized 2022 watch by Richard Mille is made of titanium with a rapid winding mechanism and features a split-second chronograph. What makes this beauty tick are actually its technical brilliance and limited availability rather than visibility on Brady's wrist like in the Carbon TPT model.


Tom Brady's auction reflected his taste and vision for detail. From NFL memorabilia to luxury watches of timeless value, the lot reflected his journey on and off the field, giving a glimpse into his personal style and history for fans. Each piece carries a story, offering fans and collectors a unique opportunity to own a slice of the GOAT's illustrious life.
