What Get Me for Christmas
The Cathode Corner Nixie Watch displays the time on nixie tubes, which are quaint neon display tubes once used in calculators in the dawn of recorded history (1969). It is a two-digit wristwatch designed for everyday use, being water-resistant and rugged.
The watch requires no button pushing to operate - it shows the hours, minutes and seconds in sequence at the flick of the wrist.
For the hardcore code tweaker, a programming adapter allows the GPL'd PIC firmware running the watch to be hacked up at will. The source code is available on the firmware page.
