The crowd of over 200 guests was delighted to celebrate LeBron James at the exclusive SoHo Beach House. The hotel’s swimming pool was transformed with special lighting and video screens projecting images of the NBA star at his recent Audemars Piguet ambassador photo shoot.

Always a style icon LeBron was sporting the much awaited Royal Oak Offshore that was presented amongst the brand’s 2011 novelties earlier this year. During a press conference earlier in the evening in the hotel’s 8th floor library, James shared his views on the brand partnership as well as his team’s chances in the upcoming NBA playoffs.
