Ironically, at the near speed of light attained to do this experiment, the watch would be redundant.

It’s worth noting that Dr. Higgs originally wanted to call it the “goddamn particle” in his book, but his editors persuaded him to change it. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/cultivare/2012/07/god-and-the-goddamn-particle/

At least it’s priced at a down to Earth price…
