Crown hits my wrist bones on the left hand.

Watch meets what I was looking for, very light and easy to read (except the date is difficult for older eyes -1 star and is too recessed making it even harder to read). The next star off was due to the protruding crown. When wearing this on the left side and not being extremely tight it will come down hit your wrist bones which is annoying so much I switched it to my right side. It would be nice to have an option for the crown to face towards elbow for left hand wearing watch people (maybe two versions). I can move it to my right wrist to prevent the crown from causing this issue, but it's seems unnatural to me to wear it on the right side.

Did not expect

Pro: Good accuracy watch, good Sapphire Crystal, light weighted, titanium Con: there is no ledges to defend crown - time jumping when you active, difficult to see day and time - low contrast Will never buy such, if I know con before hands

Garrison Is A Quality Simple Watch.

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.

Put titanium case and sapphire on the old model

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.
