Oh, we have lotsa words here. The best are the ones we've made up, like "alcoholiday" (holidays that focus on alcohol like St. Patrick's Day or Cinco de Mayo), "hobsession" (hobby + obsession, a word I brought over from another forum), "frankensense" (the ability to detect substandard put-together vintage watches), "kytina" (mold spots that look like a leopard's coat on a dial, a pattern favored by member / moderator kyle L), "spendoscenti" (the less educated but well funded watch buyers who drive up prices for the rest of us), and several others that escape me currently. We're semi-creative and very weird some days.
*Kinda interesting somewhat related anecdote: I coined a word that became a Sniglet. Well, I got a t-shirt from the show because of it but I'm not sure if they ever used it. "Hesculation" - the pause you take before stepping onto the escalator.
