“Got my first Citizen eco-drive watch nearly 10 years ago--I absolutely love it! I have had to replace the band three times but other than that it has served me very well. Just got this one for my husband for our anniversary, hoping it makes the long term as well as mine has. :)”

“The watch itself seems very well made and is running nicely. The glow in the dark feature worked from day one for me, and it has been keeping time well. The band is as bad as the other reviewer's mention. I have really small wrists, and this field watch is one of the few I found that would fit. While the small size is right for me, the band itself is lined with some stiff fake leather. (Watch face says made in Japan on the back, but the band says made in China.) On a cheaper watch I would not have a problem with his, but for the price, a nicer band would make sense.”

“These Garrison is rugged, tough, and reliable. As a park ranger, mine has been banged around inside engine compartments, submerged in swamps, rattled and shaken by all manner of power tools, slapped by twigs & branches at high speed (ATV on the trails), exposed to heat and humidity for extended periods, and pelted by sand, gravel, and other debris thrown at high speeds by powerful weed wackers. It’s not immortal or indestructible but it’s pretty darn close. After over TEN YEARS of hard use, the crystal is scratched, pitted, and chipped (the dial is still perfectly legible and the watch is still water tight!) and I’ve had to replace the band twice… see pictures. You won’t find a longer lasting, tougher watch for this price! Buy it, it won’t let you down.”

“I like the look of the watch. Been wearing it 5/6 days a week for about a year. Keeps time well--I think I'm only gaining ~8 seconds per month. The black face and steel body are nondescript enough that it works as a nicer office watch or a sports watch. I replaced the straps with a trio of NATO straps that I can swap out to change feel/match my work shirt (I got a black, a green, and a red/white/blue). A few quibbles: 1) second hand alignment is pretty poor. Misses its marks by a considerable amount across most of the face (like, falls halfway between the second/minute markers for a good portion of the face) 2) lume is great looking and very bright, but it fades pretty fast 3) I wish the minute and hour hands were just a little longer. This one is personal preference. Overall, it's a great watch that keeps good time, hasn't given me any trouble, and can be worn virtually every day. I recommend it, as long as the 3 caveats mentioned above don't bother you too much.”

“I've had the watch several years, maybe 10??? I have at least 10 watches (including this one that I bought for $100, that's how long I've had it). This one sat in a drawer for several months. Forgot it was there. When I found it, it was dead. I sat it in my window and forgot about it. Found it last week. Been wearing it ever since. Set it to the Atomic clock. Hasn't missed a second.”
