The following evening, Breguet joined dignitaries and notables from around the world to celebrate  the Opening Night of the 170th season of the New York Philharmonic. The highlight of the night was the grand concert starring Soprano Deborah Voigt. Attendees of this star-studded evening were brand president for Breguet U.S. Michael Nelson, president and executive director of the New York Philharmonic Zarin Mehta, former governor of New Jersey  Jon Corzine, actor Alec Baldwin, Whoopi Goldberg and Nathan Lane.
