The watch of Dexter Morgan

As I watched another episode of my all-time favorite TV series “Dexter” last night, I suddenly started wondering which watch leading man Dexter Morgan is wearing around his wrist. From season one in 2006 to present, he has always been wearing one – that I knew for sure. But has it always been the same? Or has he changed watches sometime and I haven’t even noticed? Well, I have to admit that it really took me some time to discover what watch he wears but I finally found out and want to share my new knowledge with you guys. 

In fact, Dexter wears two different types of watches in the series. It turned out that the first one was a Vintage Timex watch from the 70s, the second one a Waltham Watch produced in the 60s. Both models are quite similar which is why they can only be clearly identified by zooming in on Dexter’s wrist. The watches he wears aren’t very expensive but rare and difficult to find on the market. I think they were chosen because of their significant meaning for Dexter who most probably wears them in memory of his father and his entire childhood.
