First Stuart Hughes sets his eyes on the future by coating the iPhone in gold; now he focuses on the past with the Stuart Hughes Prive Phone. Considering that people are always inspired to resurrect retro styles, I wouldn't be surprised if people would pay the hefty price tag to own one of these luxurious babies.
At $212,400, the Stuart Hughes Prive Phone is very limited in availability--only ten are made. Oh, did I mention that it works, and boasts a color screen? Oh yeah, worth every penny. Keep in mind the screen is also surrounded in diamonds.
