European boutique ?

Good evening all,


I was thinking of purchasing a 26300 chronograph, and came across a nice example in Paris. Since I live in the US, and not close to an AP boutique here, does anyone know if I may be able to purchase it, have the seller drop off at the boutique for me to get it serviced and have them (boutique) ship it to me in the US?  I did email them directly but it’s been about a week with no response. Figured didn’t hurt to ask here. 
Thanks!

Unfortunately, I wouldn’t expect any boutique to help with this request.

And they will not likely respond unless you have an existing relationship with a specific SA… because they’re usually inundated with emails. In your case, if it’s not a piece purchased from them by you, then the boutique will not get involved as a third p... 

Thanks to both.

Figured it didn’t hurt to try and take one step out of the process. Guess it would need to come to me, then service then back to me. Not a huge deal.

Yep, agreed.
