"inside Girard-Perregaux"

an ongoing series

Introduction Girard-Perregaux is a special and very small brand; one does easily get the impression it is a large family rather than a watch factory. In order to assign some names (which i know to be familiar for some of you GP enthusiasts) with faces, here´s the beginning of an ongoing project. For those with need to get in contact with GP, i strongly recommend to contact your local GP Agent before. It may help to prevent language problems and speed up things a lot, as in most cases the GP Service Center of your region or country will provide you service for your watch or answer your questions. You will find a list of current GP Agents all over the world on this page: GP Agents in the world. The contact informations for GP Switzerland (as said, please contact your GP Agent before): Please feel invited to follow me through some departments of Girard-Perregaux and see "who is who" and where the work is done.   Jaqueline Perrinjaquet PR team and customer services Jaqueline Perrinjaquet Mrs. Perrinjaquet is part of the After Sales and PR team.
