I own a 166010 LV (Mark 5) and a 16610 Z-Serial.

I'm a University student in the Netherlands, studying Psychology. I have been rather lucky with my purchases, because both watches are rather above my paygrade. :)

I work in finance, with Gricham Jones, where I try to make sure large institutionals don't do anything stupid with other's people money.

Great to be here!
Another Belgian here, and I totally agree with the description.
A great country with loads of little gems.
As for the politics part: sadly gets worse by the day ;-)
I'm a staff officer in in the Belgian armed forces, naval component.
I've had loads of watches and always gravitated back to Rolex.
The first one was a submariner from 1997, a very robust watch.
Number two Rolex was a GMT IIc, but I found it too shiny and bling. Sorry.
My present Rolex is an Explorer II black face. Great watch. Love it!
I even use it as a compass!

Greets to all...
