In short you can create unique interfaces / classes for each named object(e.g. MyApiGson and ThirdPartyApiGson) and then create @Provides for those rather than the generic Gson class.

Its a little more work but it helps when you have a bunch of independent modules that provide difference instances of the same Class.
