Men in Black wearing Chopard watches at Cannes Film Festival 2015
Recently, there was some speculation about which Chopard watch was worn by Robbie Williams during his concert at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival. We also showed Jake Gyllenhaal and Edoard Noriega in Chopard watches at the Festival.

This led us to identify which Chopard watches were worn by Men in Black (mostly) at the 68th Cannes Film Festival.
Jacky Ickx, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele and Romain Dumas formed a trio interested in motor racing.
Chopard ambassador and legendary driver Jacky Ickx wore the Mille Miglia 2014 Race Edition in stainless steel.
Porsche 919 race driver Romain Dumas attended the party with his wife.
He wore the Superfast Power Control in stainless steel.
Actor Colin Firth wore a L.U.C XPS Fairmined timepiece with a slate-grey dial set in 18-karat Fairmined rose gold on a black leather strap.
His wife, Livia Firth, is creative director of Eco-Age who launched The Journey to Sustainable Luxury partnership with Chopard.
Actor Jack O’Connell – recipient of this year’s prestigious Trophée Chopard – selected a L.U.C XP timepiece with a black dial set in 18-karat white gold on a black leather strap.
Chinese director and screenwriter Jia Zhangke wore a L.U.C XPS Poinçon de Genève timepiece with a blue dial set in platinum on a black leather strap.
2014 Trophée Chopard Laureate, actor Jeremy Irvine wore a limited edition L.U.C Skeletec timepiece with a grey dial set in 18-karat rose gold on a black leather strap.
Model David Gandy chose the latest Mille Miglia 2015 Race Edition in stainless steel on black leather strap.
Model Oliver Cheshire selected a L.U.C Skeletec timepiece with a grey dial timepiece set in titanium with a black leather strap.
There is more than meets the eye when it comes to celebrities at Cannes Film Festival 2015.
They may have started as actors and entertainers on the Red Carpet wearing Chopard watches but eventually, they become friends with the Scheufeles and their causes. Elton John, Jose Carreras and Colin Firth are prime examples of men starting as celebrity Chopard wearers but whose causes resonated with Chopard viz. AIDS, Leukaemia and Responsible Mining.
Now, when they use their Chopard watches on the Red Carpet, it is more than product placement; it is because they want to help their charitable causes.
