Citizen watches continue to shine on Amazon. Some of the brand's most popular chronograph and pilot's watches have received surprising discounts over the past few months, and during Amazon Prime Day 2024, shoppers were wowed with a rare discount on a handsome Weekender sports watch. Recently, another one of Citizen's best watches dipped in price, and it's one of the nicest we've seen under $150 in a while.
Citizen's Garrison Eco-Drive Watch is on sale for just $137 right now—a 45% discount on the normal $250 price. This classic field watch is an Amazon darling, having cracked the site's top 150 most popular watches out of the thousands of styles available with an impressive 6,000 five-star ratings to show for it. It's available in three colors—black, green, and camouflage—but the green currently has the steepest discount.
This military-inspired watch encapsulates the best of rugged field watches with Citizen's modern technology. It features a compact 37mm stainless steel case and a protective mineral crystal, and it's water-resistant up to 100 meters. It has large Arabic numerals for easy reading with sharp triangular indices that line the edge of the face while a convenient window displays the day and date. It also comes with a rugged nylon strap, but it's Citizen's Eco-Drive technology that stands out the most. With it, the battery will charge when exposed to any light source, including artificial light.
For many, owning this watch is all about aesthetics. "Great watch, great looks, great performance," a shopper said. "After almost three years of daily use, this watch is still in pretty impressive shape and I have thoroughly enjoyed wearing it as my first ever daily watch. The color scheme of the military green band, black face, and steel/silver colored case and metal give it a classic yet rugged look that can be worn with almost any outfit."

For others, the watch's versatility has made them everyday fans. "The face style strikes a nice balance," a shopper pointed out. "Casual enough not to seem fussy, formal enough to wear in any business context." Another shopper agreed, saying, "If you seek a reliable, attractive, versatile watch and a great value to boot, buy this watch."
If you're looking for a casual and rugged watch that can also shine in smart-casual business settings, Citizen's Garrison Eco-Drive might be the perfect pick for you. It won't be on sale forever, so make sure to grab one while it's over $110 off.
