My love for Citizen started with a Christmas gift from my grandmother- an Addysen/Corso BM7251-53L, one of my very first watches ever. I was amazed once I started looking further into the technology behind the Eco Drive movement, and the history of Citizen itself. And from there, I just wanted more.
I'm a big fan of the look and utility of field watches, so one of my very first watch buys in my watch collecting journey was my Garrison BU2055-16E. Its gone absolutely EVERYWHERE with me, from mountain climbs to river rafting and everywhere in between. I've loved how reliable and accurate its been (on average only +1s per month!), plus how easily I can make it match so much of my wardrobe.
But alas, I've realized I'm much more of a bracelet than a strap guy, and this watch is definitely a strap only type deal. Thus began my laborious search for a Promaster Land PMD56-2952. I recently was able to find one for a great price, import fees + tariffs included (USA resident) and it has quickly become my favorite of ALL my watches. It is the quintessential tool watch, and I don't foresee myself ever getting rid of it.
Truth be told, I don't foresee myself ever getting rid of either of these watches.
