I really like the way the watch looks, the numbers stand out against the blue face so very easy to read. The leather band is a little stiff, so the watch tends to rotate off to the side of my wrist a bit during the day, but I think that should improve as the leather breaks in over time. Completely quiet watch. I wish it came with a sapphire crystal, but otherwise I am very happy with this purchase.
I was looking for a great easily readable attractive field watch. I came across the Citizen Garrison with the blue dial. It’s beautiful! It keeps amazingly accurate time. I’ve worn it biking and day to day. The leather band will get stinky and gross overtime, especially if you sweat while wearing it a lot. I bought a Nato strap for it and wow! I’m loving this combo. It has a great look and feel to it. Highly recommend this watch. Just keep in mind the leather band will get gnarly over time.
The Garrison, so far, has proven to be durable, reliable and, simply an attractive watch. This is my second Citizen purchase and I'm extremely happy with that one as well.
This is a very nice watch and just what I wanted for a dependable everyday watch. I have several Citizen watches and they are all great.
Gorgeous watch. Very classy. Perfect for summer casual. Band is soft enough to flex around your wrist but still holds its shape and form. A+
This Garrison is my new favorite watch. That’s because I can read the time. Most of my watches have skinny hour and minute hands and I struggle to tell the time without my reading glasses. It’s perfect for my needs, and it’s beautiful with the blue face and brown strap.
Excellent watch and value
I own a Corso eco-drive, but I like the Garrison watch series, and so I'm asking you Citizen, to please build the Garrison with a 40mm case...
The band is not flexible and the dial does not glow in the dark. Instead about 1/8 of the face glows but not to tell time. No I would not buy it again!
