I'm considering the purchase of a used recent production GP. The availability of quality factory service is a significant consideration for me. The USA service center is located in Boca Raton, FL. Does anyone have any experience with this facility?

RGM used to be the official service center for GP years ago... This was around 2010-2012 period... They were really great to use and might still be able to obtain parts if needed...

Thanks for the suggestion.

I checked with RGM. As they are no longer the USA service center for GP, they can not get parts.

That's too bad... They were great... Sorry I don't have any experience with the Boca Raton service center (or who is running the operation)...

Just based on google maps it looks like it’s a shared center with UN, which makes sense. Where’s the new holding company for the two based?

Googled "Tradema" Girard Perregaux and this pops out

Not a huge confidence booster but nobody's perfect

I recently sent my GP 1966 for a full service. I initiated the service though the GP website. The watch went to Boca Raton for twelve weeks and came back good as new. Keeping -1 second per day. Good communication and was an excellent experience.

I had them service a model Vintage 1945 last year and they did a good job
