The lume is off the charts fantastic. I’ve owned a few Maranez pieces and lume has never been an issue. The Racha has massive amounts of C3 Superluminova slathered on the sapphire bezel, dial markers and hands. The initial charge is quite stunning, as you will see in the photographs and the afterglow lasts for hours. Telling time in the early morning hours is no issue. I do prefer the lume provided by the sapphire bezel as the stainless bezel is only lumed at the pip. Overall the lume couldn’t be any better.
Maranez has hit a home run with the Racha Diver. The Racha packs a punch with a ton of great features such as a great case design, solid Miyota 9015 automatic movement, outstanding lume, sapphire crystal and water resistance to name a few. With multiple bezel options the Racha can be transformed within a few moments to fit the wearer’s needs for almost any social and business occasion. Overall I am extremely pleased and impressed. I look forward to seeing the next dive watch offering from Maranez.
