Gnomon and the Sinn 556

Saw this over at WUS regarding Gnomon....So is Anders an AD?..His site says that Gnomon is an authorized dealer....but is he? He seems to be an authorized reseller---his stamp isn't on the Sinn 556 in question, The Hour Glass is...... :shrug: Plus the buyer received a $250 discount.

From his site:
Yes. We are authorized dealers for all the watches on our website. And all our watches comes with warranty dated on the day of purchase

What do you think? Something doesn't seem right here..

I believe they are...

edit...if you click on Damasko it says authorized
distributor but it doesn't say that when you click
on Sinn.

Hi folks,

Hour Glass is the official distributor of Sinn. They also run a chain of watch shops, which makes them also an authorised dealer.

I'm not sure whether Gnomon is an official dealer of Sinn (from Hour Glass), BUT they definitely get their watches from Hour Glass at dealer prices.

The ending of this post was pretty funny. Since basically the guy who started the OP is a Sinn AD in Aussieland.

Basically, the Australian AD 's wife bought the watch from Gnomon...
and was just trying to discredit Anders... :bs:

No doubt Anders is a good guy.

In my own opinion, I think his relationship
to Sinn is a little unclear...

The guy who started the post on WUS is a tool...
