Great looking watch, seems sturdy. Did not fit me, too small- Im an XXXL with decent muscle mass.
This watch has been to hell and back with me. I’ve had it for 5 years and has needed no upkeep or maintenance. It’s just as good as a Hamilton Field Watch at a fraction of the price. This is the perfect watch for anyone who wants one for just day-to-day wear.
I had to purchase this watch again due to losing my original while wake surfing. I love the watch! The band on my original wore out and broke down after 3-4 years, $80 bucks to replace with Citizen just a couple months ago, so needless to say I was bummed to lose it. BUT, I did love the watch enough to buy it again!
This is my second Citizen watch. I love that they are solar powered. My last watch lasted over 10 years with hard use as a horticulturist. This watch is very nice but bigger than I was expecting. I don’t love the grommets for holes either. But I don’t like any of the women’s watches Citizen carries. This one is very much my style just big
The Garrison has been a great field watch for me. I have worn it for about a year and a half. My biggest gripe about it is that the crystal sits up about .5mm above the bezel. This causes the mineral glass crystal to be easily broken. I have even replaced it with a sapphire crystal and it has still broken. The watch itself is great but this design flaw and the sub-optimal band leaves some things to be desired.
This is my second Citizen Eco-Drive watch. I was looking for another one that could serve as an outdoor/everyday watch and I have come to discover field watches. The face is easy to read, even when viewed at an angle, with a nice contrast of white arabic numerals on the black face. The day/date window is likewise easy to read. The watch feels substantial without feeling too heavy. The Eco-Drive solar power is a great feature. The lume on the hands and numerals is also quality, as it lasts though the night to the morning hours. An area for improvement would be the band, as it is stiff and the spacing of the holes on the band leave it just a little too loose or a little too tight. I may switch out to a different band in the future. Overall I am happy with this purchase and I trust that this watch should last for years as my other Citizen has lasted many years.
its the nicest watch Ive ever owned. feels great
Great looking watch, the only complaint is that the band is uncomfortable for my wrist and I needed to get a different one.
I like my new BM8180-03E Garrison watch but liked my original AT0200-05E Garrison watch better. I like the day & date display on the new watch, but miss the stopwatch feature, the numeral 12 instead of a down pointing arrow at the 12 o'clock position, and the larger size of the original Garrison watch. Thank you, Ford Cotton
This is the order I had so much trouble with. There was also a price difference of the watch I did keep. It working just like I thought it would (great) now give me the price difference and make me feel better about problem with the other watch
