I truly never understood this. I imagine it’s to seem more knowledgeable than the silly noob who uses terms like “Submariner” and “Datejust”

Every club has jargon I guess. But I too find this weird.

OP it's not clear from your post. Were you looking for this watch and requested it from this AD or was it offered out of the blue?
