A new extension of the Elton John Watch Collection, co-designed by Scheufele and Sir Elton John, was exclusively exhibited during the private soirée. The collection, now available in a 38mm edition, benefits the Elton John AIDS Foundation which Caroline Scheufele has supported for nearly 15 years, raising millions of dollars annually since 1992 in an effort to promote prevention programs and direct treatment for those living with HIV/AIDS around the globe.
About Chopard and the Elton John Aids Foundation:
When Chopard Co-President & Artistic Director, Caroline Scheufele, first met Sir Elton John 14 years ago, he suggested she play an active role within the foundation. This encounter marked the start of a lasting friendship and a brilliant creative cooperation. The world-famous Artist and the Scheufele family, owners of Chopard, united their talents in creating the Elton John Watch Collection, a line reflecting the singer's exceptional sense of style and from which a percentage of sales is donated to the Elton John AIDS Foundation. In addition to this collection, Chopard supports the Foundation as an official partner of the Academy Awards Viewing Party and White Tie and Tiara Ball. For more information, visit us.chopard.com.
