Most of the “zombies” only care about the name so they will not be swayed by facts. I have several Rolex AND a GS SBGJ239. IMHO GS has better cases and far better dials. There is some argument about who has a better movement. Personally I prefer the GS high beat.

Having 4 ea Rolex and 3 ea GS in the collection, it's not an either/or situation. It's about having both and appreciate both. Having said that; the GS watches are tough to beat when it comes to that "handmade finish" and "less robotic production".

The GS span from quartz, hi-beat and spring drive and different cases as well. The Rolex watches...well...you know...they are very similar to each other...

I love Rolex always will, however my first GS SBGA469 is taking wrist time, the finish and the accuracy is hooked me in as I type. No hate here, just love for both.

I had been in sick love for Rolex before I fallen in love with GS. With its craftsmanship and touch of art. I am back to Rolex for the reasons of solid built, timeless design, technical note but my heart just cannot stop preferring GS when it comes to artistic (and, in my case, overall) note, passion for detail.

Haven't watched this one yet, but they did a similarly titled video a couple of months ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2Ec93qXzjs
