Squarely targeting the money-is-no-object market, iPhone modifier Gresso has debuted the iPhone 7 Black Diamond collection, boasting multiple 18 karat gold embellishments and 104 karats of black diamonds encrusted on the collection's back panel?--?with matching AirPods to boot.









Only three of the "Lux" model will be produced. It entails a 256GB iPhone 7 back panel encrusted in 1,450 black diamonds, a body crafted from grade-5 titanium, a camera frame made from 10 grams of 18 karat gold, and individualized engraving.



The Lux iPhone 7 will retail for $500,000.









For the less wealthy seeking an iPhone 7 Plus, Gresso has more affordable adornments available. Gresso's iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus models are crafted from some of the same premium materials as the Lix, including grade-5 titanium, 18 karat gold inlay, and diamond embellishments, and only 999 will be constructed.



The Gresso iPhone 7, and iPhone 7 Plus collections retail at $3,000 and up.



Buyers won't have to break the bank on delivery, however: The company offers free 2-5 day shipping worldwide with any purchase.

    Diamonds, $500,000. Lack of taste, priceless.

    For entertainment value, see the specs listed at https://gresso.com/landing/iphone-6-by-gresso/en/. It's as if they lost steam halfway through - the specs are correct in the beginning but then become cut and paste with the same weight and dimensions listed for the 7 and 7 plus versions...

    The ultra rich will waste money on anything that has more gold or diamonds than the next person. Sad.

    Funny touch Mike  :)
    But still tasteless products.

    Good grief, why spend all that money to simply make your iPhone look like that when you can do the same with a tacky case? However, the black earpods are legit, other than the diamonds/gold added on. I do kinda hope Apple releases them in black as well.

    Ah yes, the good ol'     more-money-than-brains demographic. Always good for a laugh.

    At $500K and $3K they should really sell cases to go on top of their cases.

    I looked at this image and I thought the product's logo literally read as "GREED"!

    I'm interested.

    Do these also come with the option to get a special engraving that says, "Kidnap me!"?

    Won’t that affect the radio transparency? How rich do you have to be before having a cell phone that isn’t a cell phone doesn’t matter?

    I think it's sad that these things exist.
