I kindly disagree. I highly doubt Gruen is producing rhodium plated sterling silver case backs and stamping them Guildite. Every which way I look at it, doesn't add up.
Jacks watch could be an anomaly, if it actually is what it's theorized.

Of course, I can only speak from my experience also but I've worked with, in, on and under stainless steel for the last 25 years, and I can spot it a mile away, in the rain, bad photos, whatever,...From what I see of Jacks inside caseback, that is Guildite, it absolutely has the look of stainless. Unfortunately, I do not see a pic of the outside caseback of debated watch, so literally impossible to even truly discuss it.
