I’m sure there’s many more, but here are the first few that quickly came to mind, ranging randomly (and subjectively) from fun to annoying and anywhere in between:😁

1. Shoes (!!) I admit I (rarely) use it too, even if I try my best to resist!😂👞
2. Second wrist (this I use often too, in lieu of ‘second hand;’ again neither shorter nor clearer, but at least the first time you hear it, it does sound fun!😂)
3. The thousands of nicks associated with most Rolexes old and new (and some Pateks too): Pepsi, Coke, Batman, Kermit, Starbucks (!), etc. etc… Some are fun, other annoying, most inevitable😉
4. Wrist condom (😂) OK, thankfully, this one hasn’t found a broad appeal among average watch collectors….yet!😂
5. Tiffany (!) This one is more in the ‘annoying/ridiculous’ category, if used for watches that bear no relation whatsoever with the jeweler…as in "Rolex OP Tiffany"😂 Of course, the abuse of the term has dramatically — and conveniently — increased since the (in)famous “$6.5M 5711 auction”😉
6. LOL
[I know this has nothing to do with watches, but I — personally — find it so common AND inelegant that you can be sure I’ll NEVER use it!😂 Similarly for ROFL, ROFLLMAO, LOLOLOLLMAOOTF, etcetera!!😂😂😂]
Cheers my friend😄🥂
