Just one evening after winning the Best Comeback Award at the 2014 ESPYS, Russell Westbrook was feted yet again with a private dinner in his honor at the Sunset Tower hotel.

The Zenith brand ambassador was joined by Haute Living publisher Kamal Hotchandani, Zenith president and CEO Aldo Magada and Westime president Greg Simonian and boxing great Lennox Lewis for a chic cocktail party at Westime Sunset before heading over to the intimate 20-person dinner.

The Pilot Type 20 Annual Calendar Tribute to Russell Westbrook timepiece is equipped with an annual calendar – an elegantly discreet complication that might almost go unnoticed if it were not mentioned on the dial.  It will be sold exclusively at Westime Sunset.

Following drinks and dinner, Westbrook went head to head with one partygoer, who won a watch for surpassing the NBA star in a shoot-out.
