Here are some possibilities with the use of unicode (just as a demonstrative addition to Adam's answer). The Unicode for this symbol is U+22C7.
% arara: lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\begin{document}
\noindent\setmainfont{code2000.ttf}\symbol{"22C7}\setmainfont{quivira.otf}\symbol{"22C7}\setmainfont{symbola.ttf}\symbol{"22C7}\\
$\divideontimes$\setmathfont{XITS Math}$\divideontimes$\setmathfont{Asana Math}$\divideontimes$\setmathfont{TeX Gyre Pagella Math}$\divideontimes$
\end{document}

PS: If you want to use one of the first-row symbols, you will have to wrap it in a \mathrel{} command.
