I think what you're seeing is observer bias. There's a lot of people with blown Skywatcher mounts because there are a hellovalot of mounts. Seriously I haven't been into astronomy very long and I couldn't name any other GEM. Just looking at the classifieds right now there's 8 Skywatcher GEMs on the front page.
Even if they are more reliable than other mounts you'd still hear about more broken ones than any other brand.
