Good quality, light weight, easy to maintain, nicely designed, I wish the date day window can be little bit bigger for easier observation.
I have been a satisfied Eco-Drive owner since 2008. This Garrison is the ninth Eco-Drive in my collection and it is definitely one of my favorites. I have become a fan of field watches and this does that style really well. It's easy to read and extremely light on the wrist coming in at only 84 grams, sized for my 7 1/4" wrist. I'm glad for the sapphire crystal but wish the crown was screw down to support the 100M water resistance. All markers are fully lumed and I would rate the intensity of the lume as good but not great.
I've owned this watch over a year now and have worn it everyday. It has taken several hard licks but only the case shows small scratches, none on the glass. Love the light weight and readability of the dial. Bracelet was great but not to my taste so I replaced it with a nato. Accuracy on mine is +1 sec in 10 days.
Great watch. Just wish the crown would screw in to secure it
I set this watch to my phone's clock about a month ago and it's still keeping within about a half-second. It looks great on my wrist (8.5") with the classic aviator look. The numbers are easy to read. Don't expect much from the lume, but it does exist. :-) My 12yo son picked it up and said it felt cheap to him because it was so light. That's titanium for you... But I love the fact that it's that light! Being able to customize the length of the bracelet was invaluable to me. I will definitely be coming back!

It is keeping perfect time, it's light-weight and comfortable. The dial is easy to read and I like the sweep second hand and the day-date feature.
Bought this as a replacement for my 20 year old Garrison (the smaller one with the white day/date). Wanted the sapphire crystal because the mineral crystal on my old one has become heavily scratched over the years and I’m hoping the sapphire will hold up a bit better - which was basically the only reason I didn’t get an identical replacement for my old Garrison. Overall the watch is very nice, but I’m not a fan of the larger size, I wish the lume was more white and less yellow, and my biggest complaint is that the day/date indicator is awful. The use of very thin lettering on a black background makes it nearly impossible to read at a glance and/or distance. My old one used black letters on a white background and that was perfect - legible at a glance and in nearly all conditions. Not sure why Citizen didn’t use that on this model because it is far far superior to the day/date display on this watch. Another minor criticism is the limited amount of fine adjustment on the metal band clasp, more would be better, and I couldn’t get a comfortable fit so I just ended up replacing it with a silicone strap.
I picked the Garrison titanium because of its light weight, large easy to read dial, eco drive, and quality glass. Now that I’ve lived with it on for a few weeks and subjected it to daily light construction abuse I’m satisfied with my purchase. My only disappointment is that the Lume isn’t bright enough throughout the night for me to read the watch on the side table in the wee hours. If this watch had tritium tubes it would be absolutely epic.
Greats everyday watch. Light weight and comfortable. No crown issues so far. It also looks good with a red strap!
This is an excellent quality watch and reasonably priced. Fits like a glove adjusted to my 6 and 3/4 inch wrist. Low profile on the wrist. Keeps perfect time. Full titanium, sapphire crystal, light weight and never needs a battery. I wear this watch all day, every day. When adjusting the watchband, remember to reinstall the very small friction collars with the watchband pins.
This watch ticks all the boxes for me. It is waterproof, has day and date and a metal band. The sapphire crystal is something I got used to on my other high end watch. I work rotating shifts so I never know what day of the week it is. I like the weight of the titanium case and band. I hardly feel it on my wrist. It has been keeping time well. The only "complaint" is that the day of the week changes slowly from midnight till 4 am. Making Sunday red makes it hard to see in lower light levels. The luminous dial is visible all night long which I appreciate. I've always wanted an Eco-drive watch and I'm glad I have this one!
Light Titanium Sapphire Crystal Day/Date Display Very easy to read with my old eyes. Fair price for a very nice watch :) Eco-Drive - NO BATTERY Excellent Warranty.
Where most people equate quality with weight and would turn up their nose to the featherweight of this super titanium watch. The quality like its name is Super Titanium. It has an easy-to-read face that is perfect for any occasion. The bracelet is smooth and comfortable. I love the lock device that makes it easy to take off and put on, but with this comfortable watch who would even take it off? Honestly, if you are tired of the watch that feels like an anchor and causes nightmares when you get near the water, this watch is for you. The only downer is that the back of the watch did not have the classic world/Eco-drive logo. That would have made my day but did not diminish the 5-star value. My wife was happy with the back because t has more room for engraving our 40th annaversery message on.
The watch is nice looking and comfortable but considerably heaver than other titanium citizen watch I have. I didn’t expect it to be as heavy as it is.
It is a beautiful watch. Great look and easy to set
Amazing watch! This is my everyday watch for pretty much every occasion. Beautiful clean design aesthetics. Sapphire Crystal with anti-reflective coating is fantastic for durability and legibility! 100m of water resistance is perfect! Titanium is light and comfortable. The lume is great and you will always be able to quickly see the time at a glance. Even when transitioning from outdoor lighting conditions to a dark movie theater. Some room for improvement can be if an on the fly micro adjustment clasp were added so you can quickly adjust when your wrist swells and the added security of a screw down crown. However, these are just wish list items for me! I whole heartedly recommend this watch and would buy it again in a heartbeat!
Good quality, light weight, easy to maintain, nicely designed, I wish the date day window can be little bit bigger for easier observation.
This is my first real watch as i enter the world of watches. The design is clean, the eco drive is an excellent innovation, a nice simple day date complication rounds this watch of very nice. The Super Titanium is crazy light and makes for a comfortable wear for someone who is not used to wearing a watch.

I have been using this watch for one month now. My previous watch, which lasted 30+ years, was a Seiko which was thinner and lighter. The Seiko luminescence was mostly gone after 30+ years and the day part of the day/date function stopped working but, the watch was still accurate to 10 seconds a year. This new watch has barely more luminescence than the Seiko after 30 years. I fully charged the battery when I got this watch so I am waiting to see how long it lasts without specially charging it. I actually find I prefer the known 3-4 year battery life than having to get my watch environmentally charged (I wear it 24 hours). The accuracy is within limits (loses 8 seconds a month). The watch is also bulkier than the Seiko. Seems like a decent watch but honestly, I wish I'd gotten the Seiko. Smaller, lighter, more luminescence and better accuracy (after 30+ years' experience of daily use 24/7).
Great watch in many ways... so light you forget its on, accurate Eco-Drive time keeping, and classic good looks to boot. Did I mention its case and bracelet are titanium, with a sapphire crystal? Very nice features to have at an affordable price point. I was looking to get my first titanium watch and the Garrison has been a great watch to start that journey.
