What is out of hand by calling it polar?

Naming convention?
Price?
Waitlists?
Scarcity?

Why would it be ?? Polar is at least referring to a color.

What's out of hand is comic books names ...

I’m ok with nicknames for watches. It’s hobby it’s ok to have fun with it: Hulk, Pepsi, Batgirl, Rootbeer, etc.

‘’The Storm trooper!” Is what my young son also refers to this watch, every time he sees it, and he is not even familiar w/ all the nicknames.

He also calls the BLRO Superman. Good fit IMO.
