Raven Vintage

[navyman]

I agree with happyholiday. My Rolex sub has nowhere near the lume that the Raven has. Mine lasted all night long. This is an amazing watch. I am thinking of getting a Kingston second hand and was wondering how the C3 lume compared to the Raven.

I hate to say this, but I'm pretty sure the lume on my Raven Vintage is brighter, longer, than all the LUM-TECs I've owned. I say that because I've always been vocal about how good that aspect of LUM-TECs are. I don't think I've ever had a watch with lume this good. Seriously.

Here's my crappy lume shot...

Johnny has seen the light!

Modest watches for modest wrists. It's the only way to wear.

(Though I never have tried to wear a watch on my cuspids.)

Dang iPhone auto-correction!

A couple of shots with new Bond NATO

Congrats! I'm surprised there are still some left. I was told by Jeff that once these are gone, they're gone.They have other projects on the horizon, of course, but this looks like the "it" for the Vintage.

If Raven ever puts out another Vintage in a smaller case, I'm all over it like an adolescent on a 1981 Playboy magazine featuring Suzanne Summers.

That made me lol even though 1981 is before my time but who doesn't know Suzanne Summers!

And Raven #90 checking in! Loving this watch even though it took me an hour to finally get the bracelet sized to where I like it.

And talk about super lume! I held it up to my bathroom light for maybe 15 seconds then hit the lights and my jaw dropped. I've had some awesome lumed watches before and this is near the top, if not the best.

And where did you pick up that sweet bond nato?! I need to order one, like now.

Just picked up a Maratac MI-6 Mil series nato, can't wait for it to arrive!

I wonder why the lume is so awesome. Is it due to the lume plots being bigger or is it due to the bezel also having it's markers illuminated? Whatever the case, the brightness is insane. You could almost land a plane with it at night. I can't wait to see what is next in the offering. I am loving mine. The accuracy is also amazing. Steve did a great job.

I have no idea why but I initially thought the hour plots were a little small. Now they are just so easy to read.
