IWC will host a major gala event on April 8, 2008, at the Salon International de Haute Hologerie (SIHH).  The event, named “The Crossing”, celebrates the introduction of IWC’s Vintage Watch Collection-Jubilee Edition 1868-2008.  Approximately 1,200 guests will enjoy a multi-media performance created exclusively for IWC entitled “Minutes Of Separation”.  The performance was created by the Sydney Theatre Company, whose co-artistic director is actress Cate Blanchett. Nigel Jamieson will direct the 15-minute presentation, which will feature Ms. Blanchett on film, as well as live performances from Joseph Fiennes and aerialists from Legs on the Wall, an acclaimed physical theater company from Australia.

The evening will also feature a private concert by Alanis Morissette, who will preview some selections from her new album “Flavors of Entanglement.”  In addition, a range of celebrities from the varied worlds of film, athletics, environmental activism, and literature will be present, including Kevin Spacey, Nadia Comaneci, Boris Becker, David de Rothschild, and Paulo Coelho.
