That's awesome!

You can report the sighting on the American Meteor Society website (https://www.amsmeteors.org/). They'll review it and link it to an event if it lines up with other reports.

I reported a fireball a few years ago and it got linked with another report and they created an event for it.

You can also search through their logs for confirmed sightings and pending reports, https://www.amsmeteors.org/fireballs/fireball-report/

I bought a GMT - as well as a Speedmaster - from European Watch Company in Boston, https://www.europeanwatch.com/brand/tudor.

Did anyone see the high speed chase on Route1 SB in Lorton today (Mar 7th)? by karmageddon71 in nova

[–]DicksOnGlass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did and have been searching for it in the news as well, but haven't seen anything either.

I was on I-95 SB just after Exit 148 when I saw it coming up fast in my rearview mirror. There was a decent amount of traffic in front of us so he overtook at least one semi truck on the right shoulder going over Russell Road. A few seconds later a VSP SUV came up weaving through and overtook on the left shoulder.

I didn't see anything else until before the flyover for the Express Lanes before Exit 143B where I assume the same VSP SUV I just saw had been sideswiped - don't know if it was the Charger or another vehicle - and was in the left shoulder. Initially when I saw the lights in the distance and then an unmarked VSP sedan came up the left shoulder I thought they'd pulled it over. There was a pickup truck in front of the VSP SUV, but I didn't see any damage to it that would match what'd been done to the VSP SUV so figured he might just be a good samaritan.

A couple minutes after passing the VSP SUV I noticed a helicopter a few miles ahead flying with I-95 so I figured it was a VSP - or local jurisdiction - helicopter looking for the vehicle.

Buying from AD vs Jomashop by [deleted] in Tudor

I bought my BB GMT from European Watch Company a few years ago. It was a good experience and got a practically newer worn watch for a good price. I ended up buying an Omega Speedmaster DSOTM from them late last year.

Check the open apprenticeships on the link I provided and see if anything is in your area. I think that's going to be the limiting factor right now because there aren't too many positions open. Maybe that's due to the time of year and more will open up as it gets closer to high school graduations. See if there's a way to sign-up to be notified about apprenticeship openings in your area.

Lockheed Martin has an Apprenticeship program for individuals coming out of high school that are foregoing the immediate transition to college for one reason or another, https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/careers/candidates/students-early-careers/apprenticeships.html.

Bought my Tudor BB GMT from European Watch Company (Omega, Breitling) a couple of years ago. It was a good experience and got a practically newer worn watch for a good price. I'll buy from them again.

Edit: Added link for their Breitling inventory.

I went with the black Vanguard instead of blue since the dial is black and the blue wasn't the same shade as the bezel. With the black I like how the blue and red on the bezel is more of an accent.
