Kevin Spacey on stage for IWC
del.icio.us | Save This PageIWC Schaffhausen celebrated its new Da Vinci watches with a gala event during the SIHH on 17 April 2007 and caused a stir with the appearance of Academy Award winner Kevin Spacey.
The Swiss watch manufacturer, IWC Schaffhausen, celebrated the Da Vinci models with a glamorous event in front of an audience of illustrious international guests. The high spot of the gala evening on the occasion of the SIHH Watch Fair in Geneva was provided by Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey, who appeared as a star guest in a selfproduced stage play. The short film of this performance had its own online world premiere on 16 May.
Although the launch of the latest Da Vinci watches was the incentive for the magnificent “Serata di Leonardo” from IWC, stars of an entirely different kind were in the spotlight at the start of this glittering event. Oscar winner Cate Blanchett and the actors Jean Reno and Matthew Modine headed the cohort of actors on the red carpet, flanked by Asian stars Sanada Hiroyuki and Chang Cheng. The singer Ronan Keating and worldclass footballer Zinédine Zidane posed before the photographers, and Laureus sporting legends like Boris Becker and Alberto Tomba graced the “Serata die Leonardo” with their presence.
