Omega do the same but still have 2 or 3 models that are the staple of the brand.
I would argue that GS needs a couple of staples and put all their energy resolving their thickness, bracelets, case sizes and ergonomics.
If they did this they would rule the Luxury watch market.

I agree. Our long time AD is also a GS AD. We were in last weekend as we each made watch purchases. The last 2 years we have purchased 4 or 5 GS from him. I really love the brand. It’s my favourite brand.
In talking with him the constant LE’s and sup par bracelets are hurting the brand. In fact, GS has been recalling watches that have sat for so long. Most brands do this though at times. We have 3 GS dealers very close to where I am now. I know them all very well. The brand is not selling. And I’m in a high volume area for watches.
