Zenith Defy Skyline VS Audemars Piguet Royal Oak : Does it satisfy?

In this video Jack compares the AP Royal Oak to the Zenith Defy Skyline. While both of these watches share a lot of similarities the devil is in the details. With resale prices of the Royal Oak continue to climb Zenith has come out with an entirely new model line to potentially take on the iconic Royal oak. While both of these watches are integrated bracelet sports models the differences in finishing are obvious, whats not so obvious is the innovation Zenith has applied on the movement side...
DEFY Skyline in a 41mm steel octagonal case with a faceted bezel, featuring a black-toned sunburst-patterned dial revisiting the emblematic ZENITH four-pointed star. Powered by the El Primero 3620 high-frequency automatic manufacture movement with the very first 1/10th of a second indicator. Interchangeable steel bracelet and black patterned rubber strap.

    Thanks for sharing the history of the 2 models. Who would have guessed that the Defy may have influenced Gerald Genta to design the Royal Oak. Another model that offers great value and is similar to both watches is the Girard Perregaux Laureato.

    It's crazy that a steel Royal Oak or the Nautilus cost a much as they do, at this price even a gold Rolex seem like a bargain. Since the market is what it is when even Rolex cost is expensive Zenith and JLC have alot to offer for a good price.

    How does the ZENITH DEFY SKYLINE wear on the wirst. I hope bigger then 41mm? I have 8" wrist. The Defy is a beautiful watch for the money but second hand is maybe too much rotations for me. It makes the watch a bit busy. I would also liked " Defy skyline" text on the bottom of the dial. Thanks.
