Fits well, Indestructible, accurate. Love this watch as an everyday watch. I've had my current watch for 10 years and its pretty beat up (still accurate). Glad Citizen is still making them. I've just ordered another.
While liking the looks of the watch, I find the small hour hand very difficult to see without wearing my reading glasses. I am trying to return the watch for this reason.
Really enjoying this watch. I was looking for a nice field watch for daily wear and this one fits the bill perfectly. Great quality. The second hand hits its marks perfectly and I love that it never will need a battery. The strap is stiff and the buckle gets hung up on the grommets, but I put an aftermarket leather one on.
I just received my new watch and I am very happy with my purchase. As an older woman, readability is important to me. The watch face size and numerals are perfect, as you can see from the photos. I am a little disappointed that the watch band is stiff but I’m sure it will soften in future.
Attractive style and I like never having to replace batteries with the eco function.
Just as advertised, good solid watch from Citizen. Simple, easy, high quality.
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!
I bought this same watch in about 2008 or so I guess. +/-$80. Never wore it til about 2015. I found it in my dresser one day after having it so long without ever wearing it, and it wasn't working, so I laid it on top with the intention I'd just throw it in the trash one day. A few weeks later, I looked at it and surprisingly after sitting in my dresser for all those years in the dark, it was alive. So from then on I wore it, u til about a uear ago. I went fishing and lost it, so I bought a new one, which I was extremely happy. Surprisingly I found the o e I thought I lost, so now I had 2 watches. One for work, and a nice one. Unfortunately the newest one I bought got for real lost, and I just purchased my third. So I now have a nice one and a work one again. While I was really impressed with the one I bought in 2008 coming alive after over 6 years in the dark, I'm not too happy with the last ones watch band. I think they changed suppliers and this one just doesn't feel the same. Its the canvas band, which on the other two i liked alot, tgis one tho, .....I don't like it. Maybe I'm wrong about changing suppliers, but I don't think I am. Other than that, I'm still wearing the one I got in 2008 at this very moment. Just a nice simple watch that does what it is supposed to do. I have had to change the band a couple times. I guess I'll never find one as good as the original.
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
I purchased this watch as I like a slightly smaller watch, in fact, I would really like the Garrison in a 35-36mm size. Why is there no owner's manual included?, I like a hard copy of instructions to review settings. Not everyone has 100% access to the internet to constantly go into your site for instructions. There is a card included which depicts how Citizen is helping to eliminate non-degradable batteries from landfills with this watch. Then there are two warnings on and in the watch case warning about the hazardous batteries which are in the watch.....! Confusing at best. The watch did not have a protective cover over the bezel, this is too expensive to ship with out a cover, why the oversight? Watch looks nice, time will tell if it's accurate and comfortable over the long haul.
