This watch is a beauty and will bring the conversation wherever you go! Very casual, very comfortable, and definitely versatile.
I like the style and simplicity of this watch. This is my second Citizen watch. My first was a Wingman circa 1992. This time around I did not need all those features. The Eco Drive never needs a new battery and this Garrison model is easy to set. I can even see the day and date dials. I find it most comfortable to wear. This was a gift to myself upon retiring early at 56. I’m looking forward to buying another Citizen watch for more formal occasions.
Love the look, the weight and feel. Very happy with this watch

Great watch, lots of compliments. Only thing I would change would be recess the crystal within the bezel. Feel like I’m going to scratch it up quick wearing this daily
I love this watch, and I got it just before probably the hardest week of backpacking I had. It still stood strong, and survived better than the cheap smart watch whose strap broke off. Absolutely love this timepiece, and will be getting more in the future.
I have had this watch almost a full year now. I have broken the glass twice and had it replaced through the jeweller I bought it from. This is definitely not an outdoor activity watch. It’s heavy and after about 3 months the glow in the dark symbols and hands fade out. It does keep accurate time but mine will get stuck about once a month. Not sure how long the battery life will hold up. If you are looking for a nice watch that will holdup to the elements and outdoors- this is not for you. I would go with something a little better suited for that use.

Love this watch, but… There is one major drawback for me. And that is the lume is only on the hands and 4 main pips (12, 3, 6, and 9) and not the numbers. Additionally, the hands are slim and the pips small dots, which do not hold the lume all night. I should have read the description closer before purchasing. In the pictures on the Citizen site, one would assume the numbers are lumed because of their color. Other models with a similar look have lumed numbers. The Garrison does not, and there were no night shot images of the watch to clarify this. At any rate, although slightly disappointed, I'll still enjoy wearing the watch, but will be looking for another model that has fatter hands and lume on the numbers.
I am quite pleased with this watch and in the short time I've had it it's functioned well. My only down side with the watch is the band. It is on last hole and is still fairly tight on my wrist. I'm hoping that perhaps it will "Break In" and become more flexible and become a little more comfortable. If anyone has any tips on how to speed this process let me know. Also, is there a "Bracelet" style band that would fit it? That's my only gripe and it's tiny.

First time Citizen owner. Nice watch. Looks good on the wrist. Easy to read the time. So far, so good. Too early for much else.
I love my new watch, and how it looks at night
The watch has a relatively large face and body is raised higher than a typical watch. The band is a canvas band that takes some time to break in. The dials work well and show date, day and hour. The watch seems very rugged, sturdy and well made.
I love my new watch
The watch feels amazing in my hands to the finish of the watch itself. Only issue is I kind of wish it had a booklet of how to change the date and day on it. Only thing I did have to buy is a new band for it, wrist band that comes with it just is simply to hard to put on and take off. So far I have accidentally tapped the glass on a door handle no scratches or indication of any very high quality for the price. Citizen has my loyalty when it comes to military style watches, yea g shock is well known for that but they lack on the low profile style. Very happy with the watch and brand. Just make note on the wrist band that is stock may want to replace it with something that’s easy to take off and on.
This watch is everything I hoped it would be. It was promptly delivered and on time as promised. The only improvement is that I wish the band was just a little bit longer.
I have owned and wore mine for several years now. I wear it daily for work and play. I would say it has become a necessity of my daily routine to pick this one over any of my others.
