Customer of a prostitute for an hour. Literally “watchmaker”, functions as a clever metaphorical euphemism for a client who pays specifically for an hour of a sex worker’s time.
«Часовщик» — это если на час. «Ночник» — соответственно, на ночь. Услышано в конторе на Маяковке.
“Hourglass” — that’s if it’s for an hour. “Nightlight” — accordingly, for the night. Heard in an office on Mayakovsky Street.
