This gold iPhone XS Max-Apple Watch combo is the dumbest way to spend $21,050
It’s an iPhone. It’s an Apple Watch. It’s, um, both. And it costs $21,050.
Yes, Caviar, the Russian company that gave us the golden Vladimir Putin iPhone, just dropped the Swiss Dreams Watchphone.
In case you’re wondering, that’s an iPhone XS Max covered in gold and decorated with a world map for some reason. Attached is an Apple Watch Series 4, with the added convenience of not being wearable.
Imagine the kind of person who would buy this monstrosity. Can’t do it? That’s because no reasonable human being on Earth would purchase this thing for $1,000, let alone more than $20,000. An oligarch raised in a Gucci-lined platinum Bugatti would probably think it was a bit much.
And the video …
It’s beautiful.
The Caviar website also puts forth a pretty convincing pitch: “Oh yes, this design attracts eyes! What a vivid idea, what a luxurious performance!”
And just in case you’ve got a little extra cash to burn, the Swiss Dreams Watchphone also comes in an upgraded 512GB version for $21,730. Don’t worry, shipping is free.
