Jaeger-LeCoultre celebrates the 85th anniversary of the Reverso watch in Venice

For over a decade, Jaeger-LeCoultre has demonstrated its commitment to encouraging and promoting all aspects of the filmmaking art.
The Maison feels uniquely positioned to continue its work alongside the artists who make film: both are passionate about capturing the fleeting moments.

On September 6th, Jaeger-LeCoultre hosted a gala dinner to celebrate the 85th anniversary of the Reverso watch at the Venetian Arsenal.

Jaeger-LeCoultre CEO Daniel Riedo greeted over 200 guests including friends of the Maison: Carmen Chaplin, Zhao Wei, Cristiana Capotondi, Daniel Brühl, Jorge Viladoms, Eva Riccobono, jury panel members Chiara Mastroianni, Gemma Arterton, Nelly Karim, Pilar Lopez de Ayala as well as the godmother of the film festival Sonia Bergamasco and Christian Louboutin as an honor guest. Referring to the iconic Reverso watch created in 1931, the setting of the event was inspired by the Art-Deco style, with a cabaret atmosphere.
