'the arm from the elbow to the fingertips' seems to be the about the most logical meaning since it's clearly where a watch is worn but pretty tenuous.

Lange took Odysseus, good name. Cubitus is weird, I did a YT search and some appalling surgery images came up. Proteus for a Sea theme is better imho but then I did read Classics.
