visits

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'calls on' is the definition.
('visit' can be a synonym of 'call on')

'latin sex models' is the wordplay.
'latin sex' becomes 'vi' (VI in Roman numerals - 'sex' is 'six' in Latin. I am not sure about the 'latin' bit.).
'models' becomes 'sits' ('sit' can be a synonym of 'model').
'vi'+'sits'='VISITS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for visits that I've seen before include "Call to see" , "Comes by, drops in" , "Calls in to see" , "Pays a call" , "Social calls" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
