Actually, didn't we deviate from our usual SOP and enter "Woody" in the variant field since this was such a popular nick-name?  While that was not the model name or variant, it was so entrenched in use, we decided to enter them as such, until we determined actual model name (and/or variants).  Four examples from database below w/ "Woody" in variant field.

Will, there are actually several more than the four you linked, question is:

Should this watch also be tagged a Woody? I would not be opposed but in principle we might also ask if all the others should be 'untagged'?
