Basically the title says it all. I picked up one of these brand new off eBay for $120 and I think this is a fantastic tool watch. I ended up with one for work as I’m in healthcare and didn’t want to gunk up my nicer GADA watch. It’s a great size for my slender wrist, easy to read and so far keeps great time! Yeah it’s an eco drive, not automatic but I mean for a watch I just can slip on and head to work I can’t think of a better model in ths price range. Definitely a firm recommendation from me for whatever that’s worth.

Like some others I wasn’t keen on the original strap but I picked up a few from CNS and I’m loving the single pass strap on it!

    I’ll chime in and say that my nicer watch is a VAER with sapphire crystal and dual layer AR and it’s definitely a different look to it. Maybe I’m too detail oriented but I for sure notice the difference in the refraction. Even though my VAER C3 is a matte dial it looked pearlescent because of the AR coatings. Not saying bad vs good but definitely noticeable. On the Garrison there’s no refraction, just a clear visual on the dial. All business.
