In the graphic novel they don't actually say the word watchmen at all, they used the term 'masks' a lot though. The term 'watchmen' is meant to refer to superheroes in general, not a group. In the movie they use it maybe five or six times but they still stuck with the idea that it wasn't a specific crimefighting team.
The Watchmen graphic novel takes place in an alternate 1985. it is also a lot darker and at the same time more technologically advanced than 1985. but if you'd read the book like the rest of the real fans you would know that already.
