Watches, electronics, travel, cars. Things that give me joy in life, and hopefully prove interesting to you!
Omega Railmaster XXL
Large, striking, rare, and handsome.. All 49.2mm of it.
It was love at first sight for me, and eventually I had to have it. Unfortunately due to the size, and my wimpy wrists, the actual wear-time was minimal.
So one last little celebration of one of my all-time favourite watches, before it heads-off to its new home tomorrow.

There are many great noise cancelling wireless headphones available today. I talk about my favourite 4, and more specifically my pick of the bunch.
How (and why) to clean the filters in your heat pump dryer
Переглядів 47 тис.2 роки тому
Cleaning is hardly ever a sexy topic.. But it is an important one. Especially with regards to the filters in heat pump dryers. I'd assume the majority of customers of these appliances do indeed choose them for their high energy efficiency - handy in these times of high electric prices. Unfortunately if the filters are not kept clean, these appliances will not work very well. They will take even...
US online banking from abroad (without US phone number)

To secure your online banking activity, many US banks require a US cell phone number to send security confirmation codes (when logging in, or when transferring funds etc.). But what do you do if you depart the US, and no longer have access to a domestic phone number? I hope this video might be of some help.

Some models permit it, and some do not. Please follow the simple steps in this video to try for yourself! Note: The washer that doesn't appear to allow turning off the sound is model: Samsung WW90T684ALE The dryer that allows tun...

Another aviation video in this COVID time of no flying. Much of this flight to CVG was spent avoiding severe thunderstorms.

As it could be a long time until we all fly for fun again, I wanted to share this one. Departure to the west, out of LAX on a perfect day. This was the view from seat 51A. The extraordinary thrust of the A380 brings a smile each and every time. Stay safe all.
Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39

Not a review as such, rather a short video displaying the beauty of the Rolex OP39 in Dark Rhodium.
I bought this washer and dryer set for my wife about two years ago, without knowing it had this tune at the end of EVERY FRIKIN CYCLE. She will NOT let me turn it off and now I’m seriously considering taking a screwdriver to both ear drums to gain some sanity back 🙈 The machines run amazingly, love the way they operate. This is the one flaw that seems to have everything that could go wrong with a new washer and dryer at all wrapped up in one spot. It’s horrible. 2 years I’ve been listening to this tune guys… 2… years… 🫣
@@_Error_404_Goodbye please keep the screwdrivers far from the ear drums… but yeah, perhaps step out of your home for a quick break when you see 5 mins remaining on the cycle 🤣
lol totally joking about the 🪛, was just trying to “drive” the point home 😂🤣
Is it possible to turn off all sounds? I mean on click and on start? :)
I have not found a way - without actually disconnected this speaker :(
@@worldofcraig That's also a good idea :P I don't find it useful :D I will think about it...
There’s always stale water that stays at the bottom there.. it stinks and it gross. Doesn’t matter how well you take care of it
I do try to leave the compartment open for several hours, weekly, just to help allow some of the moisture to evaporate.
what is the name of what you use to clean it, please?
I think the original Samsung part is : DC6701092A
Brilliant thank you! Wish you could choose the tune.
You a legend
Could you use a compressed air canister to clean it?
I'd just be cautious about blowing the lint into the machine. Ideally you'd suck it out
Not all heroes wear capes. This is the exact type of content the internet was made for. 🙌
🙏🙏
The greatest post ever to go on UA-cam, thank you, sir
The kindest message to ever go on UA-cam. Thank you!!!
Thank you! 3,days after buying this model I was pulling my hair out trying to stop the noise.
I have a hinsense heat pump dryer and it's making a horrible load noise I clean everything you've shown!! I've only had it 6 months
Stopping that music needs to be a crime!!!
😂
Whoever incorporated that tune at the end of the cycle should be fired
Thank you!!
Thank you so much 🫶I have already 2 years and finally I finding your video ❤
Better late than never!! Enjoy the silence 🙌
Life saviour 🎉🎉🎉
You just saved my and a lot of others life. Including my husband who bought this machine and the devil inside it. Thanks!
I wish there were other melody to choose from. Maybe like 2 simple beeps.
It's truly astonishing. They are able to craft arguably th ebest consumer-price appliances, but then overlook such a simple and practical option!
HELP!! - So, I am among the minority and look for the notifications to let me know when the dryer is done - it also affects the audio notification on the SmartThings App. I have the DVE50A8600E, and the volume is very muted. I would greatly appreciate any help in finding out how to resolve this. I have chatted with Samsung, and there is no volume control - either off or on. I am thinking that maybe there is a "speaker" that is being blocked - but would like more information (location of the speaker, etc.) before pulling the whole machine out....
That’s it?! I want to turn off those godawful beeps in general!! Everyone should be able to read a fucking manual and do this.
I can't tell what "this guy" is. The icon is too small for me to be able to see it???
Hello you have any option the remove all sounds?
Held! Ik werd knetter gek van dat t*&ing geluidje elke keer.
I’m sure the other day when the melody played it missed out a few notes. Any ideas why?
Mine does that sometimes. Must be en electrical fault. As I can’t turn it off on my washer I am hoping it will completely fail soon.
What a great vid 😂😂
Called a condenser dryer. I have one and a SDC14709. My whole filter at the bottom comes out and I wash it in the bath. Let it dry and put it back in. The vent on the right can come off. How do I remove this? Is my question...
My beko has a foam filter there.
Are the foils part of the heat exchanger? Would it also help if I gave them a wipe over with a slightly damp microfiber cloth?
May you receive the highest honor in heaven and on earth
Thank you Sir. 2 years after they still have the same song on their 2023 products...
It’s really ridiculous.
You are a life saver 😊
You're a sanity saver!
…and you are too kind!
Thanks friend, from Seattle ‼️ A friend of mine on Discord who is also Dutch, sent me this to save my sanity ‼️
A true friend, indeed!
Thank you so much for this information. Appreciate your help because these options are not available in the Smart App that I connected to the washing machine.
It's a tatty way of cleaning, not very effective, the lint is always wet and sticks, I open the hatch let it dry and hoover it.
also a very good option. IF you have the chance. With two young kids at home, we rarely have the time to leave it long enough to dry out.. machine always in use 😂
Thank you, it did work on my washing machine that looks like your panel, I pressed the hand icon and held it for 3 seconds as you said and found an additional menu where by turning the main knob I found alarm which said press the circle underneath to turn the sound on or off at the end of the cycle, I turned it to off Yay! The sounds are there otherwise just not the annoying song at the end of a cycle (very annoying when timed to finish very early morning) 👍😊
my bottom 1 was clogged and wet! the dryer has stopped working now. turns on and just hums. any help would be great
Hello! Sorry to hear this. Might you try un-plugging the device, and after cleaning the filter, leave the filter flap open for a day or two to ‘breathe’ (dry out) a little. The fluff in the filter is often quite wet in mine after heavy use. Good luck!!
thank you@@worldofcraig
To all people reading on review done by the reviewer on the Bowers & Wikins PX 7 or PX8 . Please do not trust them at all, because i am a singaporean who bought my Bowers & wikins at Jaben singapore on 18/09/2023. With Totally disappointment and it is not cheap selling at singapore dollars $935.00. The sound quality is totally disappointed as their claim the sound use to be so good & i can honestly tell you is totally rubbish, why the low bass frequency is very boomy and muddy sound not clean bass. The mid range vocal is very hold back and not rich and warm. The high frequency is very bright sound after adjusting the equalizer setting. The noise cancelation is the worse of all , when i switch the active noise cancelation on i would 100% hear the standing fan wind spinning noise . Overall all what those reviewer on UA-cam who claim are not true because they dont bought the Bowers & wikins PX 8 themselves but are loan to them for review purpose only. kindly take note if not you live to regret after buying it with your hard earn money!!!!!!
Maybe you got a bad set. I have listened to all of the products priced around this price-point. I am simply sharing my personal opinions and experiences. I don't have any affiliation with B&W, and I don't get a single cent for this review. I would always encourage people to listen-before-purchasing. Let them make their own opinion. Have a nice day.
Looks totally different on the NATO. Very cool.
Still looks big though. I think Omega could have still made a great impact with a 44mm size or so.... It needed some size for the drama... but (at least for skinny wrist me) the 49 has always been trouble... :-)
Thank you! Very useful video!
Thank you, Craig G.!
Good video , I have to make my decision on whether to get the momentum 4s or these ones but to be honest , having some good looking headphones are way more important than having them have better active noise cancelling because it’s kind of like a fashion , where if your headphones look good , you automatically want to wear them more . And these ones sounds good also . So I think I’m going to go for these instead .
Thank you very much for your message. To be honest, I don’t think you can go wrong with these or the M4’s… I still struggle a bit with the Momentum 4 design, but (as you know) they are a great product. Since uploading this video so have continued to wear these B&Ws and if somebody stole them, I’d buy the same pair again, tomorrow. I still find them a terrific product for the price! Again, thank you for stopping by here and good luck with your purchase!
Saved my life!
Thanks!
Thanks for the video! Do we need to deep clean it with coil cleaning solution occasionally? Like an air con?
I have never had the need to do that. I keep the filters clean and that seems to do the trick!
This is an enjoyable and useful presentation, Craig. I, essentially, agree with all of your points, having owned or tried all the headphones mentioned. Unlike you, I do consider myself a bit of an obsessive audiophile, so I also purchased the Bowers & Wilkins PX8 headphones, simply because I love my PX7 S2 headphones, and presumed that would be a worthwhile investment in an upgrade. Well, I was wrong. I absolutely prefer the PX7 S2's. For me, the PX8's are overly strident and harsh sounding (YES harsh, mainly in low treble, though the bass too to a lessor degree), noticeably heavier feeling, and the leather made only a very slight comfort difference. I'm guessing my displeasure with the PX8 might have something to do with the extra responsiveness of the carbon cones on that model. So, in my experience, nobody is missing anything by not spending $300 US dollars more for the PX8's. Hope you find this interesting.
Sincere thanks for your very kind words and incredible insights. I would’ve had to sell a kidney to afford the PX8. Thanks again for taking the time to write.
Thanks for the comment ,I was looking for a "real " person who tried the PX7 S2 & PX8 , cause I wanted to buy only one of them and I was not able to make my mind weather the 300€ difference is worth it
Thank you!
Sound not clear & neat
Sorry about that
My washer doesn't have this option I have to go on with this hell...why? Oh WHY😭😭😭
My washer doesn’t either… BUT a weird and wonderful thing has happened… over time the sound has started to fail… so most of the time you hardly hear it - it is just so quiet. Just hope the rest of the machine doesn’t also start to fail… 🤣
Absolute legend. I cant tell you how crazy that was driving me.
