Vintage Waltham 1970s "Dexter Morgan Watch" 25 Jewel Self-Winding Steel Men's Watch

This is the iconic Waltham model worn by Dexter Morgan in the famous TV series — a true piece of collector’s lore that instantly stands out on the wrist. This vintage 1970s Waltham Selfwinding 25 Jewel stainless steel men’s watch is in fantastic overall condition, fully cleaned, serviced-ready, and operating with impressive mechanical health. The case is sharp and exceptionally well-preserved, retaining its vintage brushed steel geometry. The crystal has been polished, showing only slight scuffs and minimal wear consistent with age. The watch is fitted with a time-period-correct Spiedel flex band, completing the exact aesthetic made famous by Dexter. Mechanically, this piece is a standout. After 48 hours on a winder, the movement shows a strong amplitude above 200°, beat error under 1 ms, and a rate stability of roughly ±1 minute/day, indicative of a watch that was serviced not long ago. It holds a strong charge, winds smoothly, and functions as a durable daily wearer or centerpiece collectible. For fans of the show, vintage enthusiasts, or collectors who want a piece of screen-accurate history, this Waltham is an exceptional find — fully cleaned, professionally inspected, and ready for immediate wear. Waltham’s 1970s self-winding 25-jewel models were known for their durability, smooth-running movements, and clean, modernist dial layouts. Their reliability made them a natural choice for wardrobe departments — and ultimately for Dexter Morgan, turning this watch into a cult classic worn by one of TV’s most iconic characters. Flex bands like the Spiedel fitted to this watch were common for the era, making this a faithful representation of the original screen-used look. This exact aesthetic has become widely identified as the Dexter watch — a subtle but unmistakable part of his character’s signature visual style.
