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 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.
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.
This watch is a beauty and will bring the conversation wherever you go! Very casual, very comfortable, and definitely versatile.
I have owned a Citizens dress watch for over 10 years. I has worked flawlessly. When my old Swiss Army watch died I decided to buy a Citizens military style watch. The Chandler has been an excellent choice. It is easy to set, easy to use and with eco drive it is a great value.
Looks good, however the band is way too short. The site doesn’t say the length nor gives the option for different sizes.
This is a good product so far I’ve had it about a month now. It’s a little on the thick side but I like the look. Had a citizen before lasted almost 20 years. Different model but that’s why I got another. Hopefully I can tell you how much I like it in 15 years
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.
My boyfriend really likes the gift! It has all of his favorite colors and looks nice on his wrist
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.
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.
