it means the phone(real deal) was bought from market A and sold in market B.

so in other words, water phones = grey market phones.
people use that term so commonly

it also could mean a phone that didn't pass QC and was sold anyways.

you can't really translate "water" = grey market.

The term has evolved, and as such as a slang term, you'd never be able to nail it down. Go define the term "whatever". When I was growing up, it was "no", then it's "maybe", now it's become "sure..."
