What is your favourite definition of WIS

[Primus]

I've seen some hilarious definitions of WIS recently and i just wanted to share with you guys some i read online.

Maybe you guys can contribute and put your own definitions.

Definitions of a Watch Idiot Savant

1) self trained to sleep in 5 positions with wearing his/her COSC certified chronometer in bed.

2) wears a triple date chronograph with moon phase everyday, but cannot even tell time from the basic hour and minute hands on the dial without a pair of reading glasses.

3) takes the 200 meter water proof Seadweller off from the wrist and puts it into the deepest pocket before walking into a storm without any rain gear.

4) A WIS is someone who bases his vacation destination on the water resistance rating of his watch.

5) A WIS is one who can tell you the start up date of most Swiss watch companies but cannot remember his anniversary or his kids birthdays.

6) Plans a vacation strictly around watch shopping;
 
7) someone who remembers what watch their proctologist was wearing..!!

8 ) first thinks of movements, not modems, when hearing the number 28,800.

9) A Watch Idiot Savant is someone who spend a large fortune on watches to have a small fortune on watches.
 
10) ...ten minutes after meeting someone for the first time, can tell you what kind of watch the person was wearing, but can't remember their name. ;-)

11)  Convinces his wife to put off having that next kid so he can get a Patek 5035


And my absolutely favourite:

12) One who considers safe sex is taking off their watch, right before sex, and putting their watch in a Scatola del Tempo box!

How many of you hit any of the above points?

I'm already hitting a few!

(Damn after posting this i open the US Rolex forums and did a search and someone already posted a very simliar post there a while back... oh well don't call me out on this!)

[Taga]

    

May I add a few more (picked up from the net...);

1) Spends $500 plus on polish equipment and materials and works 20 hours in order to refinish a $200 worth SS bracelet.

2) Has a annual budget of $500 on the purchase of a new watch and posts the question on the watch  forum "which one is better? A Rolex or a TAG?"

3) Memorizes all serial numbers of the Rolex watches made in the past 60 years but keeps forgetting the wedding anniversary.

4) Starts winding up his collection of manual wind watches and finishes the last one just as the power reserve on the first one runs out - and then starts all over again.

5) Politely asks his wife and daughter to be quiet and turns off all noisy appliances so he can listen to the roter on his new Valjoux-equipped Hamilton Chrono spin!

6) Remembers to wind all his watches, but forgets to take out the garbage on garbage pick-up day.

7) Meets Cindy Crawford and notices her "my choice" Constellation long before her chest.

8 ) Buys magazines only for the watch ads, reads none of the articles.

9) Wakes up in the emergency room, after had an accident and asks the nurse if his watch was scratched.

10) Owns $15K worth of watches and wakes up to a $10 pasar malam digital alarm clock.

If you answered "what handkercheif?", you're a sex addict.
