This watch is easy to read with clear numbers and an uncluttered dial. While the lume is legible, it could be a bit brighter. I replaced the band with a basic NATO strap almost immediately as the standard strap is stiff and uncomfortable. With a NATO strap, the watch is comfortable to wear all day. Overall, a great everyday watch.

I purchased one of these watches at a military exchange at least 16 years ago in 2006 . It fits great and keeps time like a champ. It was my first Citizen's Eco-Drive. I was skeptical at first; however, I have been very impressed with this watch. The only issue is that the first band wore out after 5 years. Obviously, I bought a new band and another Eco-Drive model; and, I am keeping my Garrison model because it has been so dependable and comfortable. If you're looking for a good military style watch that does not cost a fortune, then this model is the watch for you. Oh yeah, it does not get in the way of long sleeve shirts.

This watch has been amazing. I bought it for a deployment to Afghanistan because I hated batteries going out before coming home. It's been going for 11 years beyond. Best part of its life is that while swimming in lake In Texas my dog pawed at me and broke band and watch disappeared in about 7 feet of water. 6 months of drought later walking with my wife and she says, "found your watch!" One hour off from time change and band pretty gnarly but time was on the minute. Today it stops from time to time and I'm told the capacitor (rechargeable battery?) might need replacement. I think if I could pick one watch on a survival show this would be it.

I love this watch! Switched the strap out for a jubilee and is my everyday watch. Keeps on ticking and a personal favorite.

This product met all expectations. I wanted a simple easy to read watch. Buckle band with rugged look. ECO DRIVE particularly. The band functions well

The watch itself is great. I've had it over 2 years with no issues. My only critiques are that the watch band has very little adjustability. Moving from one position to another is a huge jump. I've finally replaced the band that has more traditional holes and spacing and enjoy it much more. The glow in the dark watch hands also aren't that bright. Other than those minor things its a great watch.
