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.

I bought this watch a few months ago. Very accurate time piece. I did change to a leather band, nothing wrong with the original band, I just prefer leather.

I got this watch as a fathers day gift and love it. This is my second citizen watch, however, I haven't worn a watch in many years. With that I though it might feel weird wearing one again but that wasn't the case as this watch is very comfortable on the wrist. There are a few features I wish it had that some of the more expensive citizens have but that would obviously raise the price point of the watch. As it is if you shop around you should be able to find this watch for a very affordable price.
It is everything I hopped it would be. The day and date feature is very helpful I really like it.A good choice for any man
Very comfortable watch to wear every day and the large numbers are easy to read
I bought this watch, and the next day I left it in the sun to charge. About 3 hours later I went to check on the watch and there was condensation under the face. I have sent it back to where I bought it, now waiting for a new one. Unfortunately the Citizen store I bought my watch from, has a no money back, only an exchange for the same style. No photos to share cause I sent the watch back.
I love this watch it's perfect for my needs. It is my fourth Citizen watch. I wear them with pride
I pretty happy with this watch, however, it does not appear to have a way to zero it out. The hands do not all point straight up at 12:00:00. The second hand ticks to the half second in between the second marks. I'm not very happy about that. Other than that the watch does everything that I anticipated.
I have 3 echo drives. The others are titanium. This one is a bigger piece, and I'm not a big watch guy. But this one is nice. The canvas strap in drab, and its expedition theme is spot on. This is the watch Patton would have worn. If he didn't know it's made in Japan. It's fast my #2 behind my Shinola Runwell.
This watch has a unique design that I really like. The over-sized numbers offset with the green strap make it a great casual wear. I find the strap to be very comfortable and durable; I quite often wear this model when out mountain biking and the stand out design of the hand and dial make it perfect for catching the time at a quick-glance.
