What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Citizen Garrison

Owners widely praise the Citizen Garrison for its excellent legibility, comfortable size for slender wrists, and impressive value at its price point. The brushed case finishing is noted as surprisingly well-done, and the green dial is a particular highlight for many. Accuracy is frequently lauded, with one owner calling it the most accurate quartz watch they've owned, and the solar battery is appreciated. However, some owners wish for a smaller case size, and opinions are split on the bracelet and strap, with some finding them comfortable and others suggesting upgrades. The day-date complication is also a point of discussion, with some preferring its integration and others desiring a cleaner dial. Overall, owners rate the Citizen Garrison highly for its legibility and value, making it a favored tool watch.

Straton Yacht Racer Quartz

Owners report the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz is in excellent condition with flawless sapphire crystal and lumed bezel, and some find the 42mm case a bit wide. Reviewers praise the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz as a fun, colorful, and quirky chronograph offering exceptional value under $300 with a retro design and a reliable Miyota quartz movement. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz highly for its exceptional value and retro design.
