Leonardo DiCaprio has signed on as a brand ambassador for TAG Heuer. Royalties from the deal will go toward environmental initiatives.

Actor and environmental activist Leonardo DiCaprio is TAG Heuer’s newest brand ambassador.

The three-year agreement will see royalties from the deal go to the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and Green Cross International, along with a multi-million dollar commitment in support of environmental charities from the Oscar-nominated actor.

“TAG Heuer is a strong brand with a proven commitment to doing good,” DiCaprio said. “It is a great day when a company as respected as TAG Heuer explores a different way to do business—selling products and giving back at the same time. I’m very excited to start this new partnership.”
