The legendary Cigarettes, born of the genius of Don Aronow, out of America will make their home in Italy. In fact, Top Gun Performance, worldwide distributui of Cigarettes, has a new reference for Europe and Asia, based in Italy: Top Gun Yachts Eurasia, in the hands of manager Pietro Lucchese.

This year the brand will also present its models in Genoa and Cannes. At the Cannes Motor Show in past years, it was easy to recognize when a Cigarette was being started. Now, as we wait to see them live at the two shows, let’s see what this new partnership will bring for the Euro-Asian markets and what boats are currently in range.

As mentioned, the manager at the helm of Top Gun Eurasia (based in Udine) will be Pietro Lucchese, drawing on his 41 years of industry experience and 34 years spent in marketing and communications. His task? Expanding the iconic American brand into the Euro-Asian market, transforming it from “American Offshore Legend” to “World Legend.
