Reconcile Your LHC Shutdown Sadness With A Higgs Boson Watch


Are you having a hard time dealing with the Large Hadron Collider’s two-year maintenance shutdown? Do you miss waking up every morning to the potential of another big particle discovery in the news? Then strap this awesomely animated Higgs Boson watch to your wrist as a reminder that in no time the LHC will be back in business.

Powered by a quartz movement and adorned with a genuine leather strap, the $40 watch features a set of spinning particle trails indicating the hours, minutes, and seconds instead of traditional straight hands. Even non-science types will appreciate its unique design, but let’s be honest here, if there’s a physicist in your life, you’ve just found their next birthday gift. [Neatoshop]
