<p>I'm in a similar boat as you - from what I can tell, best bet is to buy from Chrono24, used, from a dealer with good reviews, and pay ~250 additional for chrono24's certification service in which they guarantee its authenticity.<p>I've been waiting for years to pull the trigger on the Speedmaster, and recently decided on the white dial one. I say decided, but mean that's the one I want but can't bring myself to click purchase :]</p>

<p>Purely empirical observation, in my own life, make no claim as to humanity/society/etc.:<p>It's interesting how often fermi estimation problems are used as proxy's for "intelligence". Something like: 'let's assess how well "they can think" - how many golf balls fit in a baseball stadium?' etc.<p>Often, doing well in these kinds of problems can more than makeup for a lack of specific knowledge in something someone is interested in assessing!</p>

<p>I 100% agree - I’m only saying hegseth didn’t run an unsecured line into his office himself no?<p>Why didn’t some automated system say “installation of unsecured lines in this building is not possible” or similar<p>To be course : I didn’t think something so obviously wrong would have been allowed and enabled by several people who made this possible - removing absolutely no accountability from the person who asked for this to happen</p>

<p>Just to clarify - I am not presuming to shift blame - I am asking about a failure mode here- absolutely hold hegseth accountable (he should have never been in this position and is completely unqualified in my opinion).<p>I am also not suggesting we hold an IT person accountable-<p>I am only saying there should be rules/systems in place so that if someone else asks for something obviously wrong like this again, there’s a clear stop gap to say “that’s not possible”<p>Maybe there already is one(several) - if so, then of course the chain of accountability continues to ensnare…</p>

<p>Not downplaying or defending - but I don’t understand the failure mode here - presumably hegseth had to ask someone in pentagon IT to set this up? Submit a form etc. sure he asked for something illegal* but someone actually following a set of rules had to enable this, no?<p>(* or against protocols, etc)</p>

<p>Thanks that makes sense - just feels weird to go from years of “be very careful rewriting history with git, especially at work” to jj rewriting everything all the time - can’t shake the feeling there’s a clash somewhere waiting to happen</p>

<p>How does this work with a shared remote branch? I know in git when you alter your history you can do a `git push --force-with-lease` as a safer `--force` - do you have to do this frequently with jj "rewriting history" (from a git perspective)?</p>
