: Hodinky means little watch in Czech.

I can confirm it is some mismatch of czech word for watches:
hodiny = clocks (on the wall in kitchen, or some kind of clock on church)
hodinky = watches
male hodinky = little watches
I can understand that he replace last "y" with "ee" but than it is wrong czech pronunciation
