During the evenings
speeches by the principals, Pershing President Tilli
Antonelli, who had flown to Singapore especially for
this event, had a surprise in store for Lee Marine MD
Joshua Lee by calling him to the stage to accept a
prestigious award, namely “Best Pershing Dealer in
Asia-Pacific”.
Accepting the award
from Tilli Antonelli and Alessandro Diomedi, Business
Development Manager for Pershing, Joshua said he was
surprised and flattered at the presentation and thanked
them both for their appreciation. The award was a
steering wheel from a Pershing yacht and, as usual, Josh
couldn’t wait to get his hands on it.
“We have worked very
closely with our friends at Pershing over the years, and
a lot of effort has been made on both sides to supply
superb boats and the professional service and after
sales care that our customers expect”, said Josh.
“I am very grateful for
this recognition and can assure you that this is just
the beginning. We are very fortunate to have owners who
share our passion and who have trusted us, Lee Marine
and Pershing, to look after them throughout their
ownership experience”
Jean-Marc Jacot, CEO of
Parmigiani Fleurier SA, a premium watchmaker that
produces a very exclusive Pershing edition timepiece,
was first to congratulate Joshua following the
ceremony.
