Deutsch Begriff oder Satz: wie sonst kaum ein anderes Modell eine andere Marke
In an article talking about a wristwatch. I'm having trouble wording this (Friday...end of the week...fried brain).
YY = Watch manufacturer's name
XX = Name of their watch

"Zwei Gesichter hat seit den dreißiger Jahren auch das Antlitz der Uhrenmarke YY - im übertragenen Sinne: Die Wendeuhr "XX" hat die Geschicke der Manufakturmarke beeinflusst und ihr Ansehen geprägt **wie sonst kaum ein anderes Modell eine andere Marke**."

Thanks for any suggestions and have a great weekend all! :)

Jennie Sherrick, MA (asker): 11:50pm Jul 11, 2003: no verb missing - Hi e-rich,
I think that is what is confusing me as well (looks like a verb has been omitted). I've typed it as the published article has it though. :(
Kim Metzger: 12:13am Jul 12, 2003: Here's your 'missing' verb: und ihr Ansehen geprägt wie sonst kaum ein anderes Modell eine andere Marke **geprägt hat** -

I don\'t see anything missing in your sentence, Jennie.

Since the 30s, the countenance of the YY watch brand has had two faces - in a figurative sense: the Wendeuhr \"XX\" has influenced the fate of the Manufakturmarke and has shaped its reputation as hardly any other model has shaped another brand.

how else can another model *become* an other brand

Erklärung:
but something is missing in your original, a VERB. I have put in "become" for this verb but it would of course be much more helpful for you not to cut off the sentence at the very crucial spot.
