Exuberant,
weird and obscenely expensive have always been the cornerstones of Caviar's
phone customization business for the extremely affluent. And seeing how the
company has been around for quite some time now, we can only assume that there
is a market for these kinds of creations.
Caviar's
current "Superior" line of iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max (no regular
iPhone 11, since that is too cheap) phones is definitely among the weirdest on
offer. Said limited edition phones are created with "pieces of personal
belongings of legendary personalities". Joining their ranks today are the
Iron Mike and Marilyn Monroe models.
Iron
Mike is limited to 50 units, in keeping with the number of wins in Mike Tyson's
professional career. Each unit has a titanium relief on the back, along with a
floral pattern, which Caviar claims to add "special brutal dynamics to the
design". But what about the pieces of personal belongings, we hear you
ask. In this case you get a piece of his "sports equipment", enclosed
under a protective glass. The cheapest iPhone 11 Pro 265GB "Iron
Mike" model will set you back US$ 5,850.
The
Marilyn Monroe edition is pretty similar in terms of materials - titanium with
PVD, complete with "exquisite ornaments of intriguing black lace. All that, wrapped around a base 64GB
iPhone 11 Pro will set you back US$ 5,100. These two new Caviar creations are
joining the ranks of the Ali & Frazier Gold model, with pieces from the
uniforms of the two fighters, the Jobs edition, with a piece of Steve Jobs'
turtleneck and The Beatles Gold, with pieces of John, Paul, George and Ringo's
suits.
And
if the "Superior" line is not really to your taste or is simply too
cheap, there is always the Credo Christmas Star Diamond iPhone 11 Pro, which
starts at the cool US$ 130,000.
