The best definition ever was posted by our own Padi some years ago:
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...t=our+own+Padi Wis = Watch Idiot Savant. 1.A person self trained to sleep in 5 positions while wearing his/her COSC certified chronometer in bed. 2.A person who opens the back of a new Patek on the first day of acquisition and hand winds the rotor to tighten up the main spring. 3. A person who takes his 2000 meter water proof Rolex SD off from the wrist. And puts it into the deepest pocket,and three plastic bags before walking into a rain storm without any rain gear on. 4.A person who waits every 5 minute in front of his radio controlled clock in order to adjust all his/her 14 mechanical watches to the accuracy within -2/+2 seconds per 24 hours. 5. A person who can memorises all serial numbers of the Rolex watches made in the past 60 years but keeps forgetting the wifes wedding anniversary. 6. A person who washes his/her watch in luxury shampoo,polishes with specially bought cloth.Then rests it on another specially bought cloth just encase they scratch the stainless steel.
