Introducing the world's first diamond iPhone case...
The Case-mate Diamond Case is handcrafted with 42 diamonds (3.5 carats) set in 18K gold, embedded in a rare gold carbon fiber leather case. With VVS1 clarity and H color, these diamonds are superior in quality. Complete with an 18K gold emblem, the Case-mate Diamond Case is truly a one of a kind.

But that's not all. The Diamond Case is crafted of luxurious Carbon Fiber leather, previously available only in high end aftermarket cars (Techart Porsche) and very high end cell phones (Vertu). Case-mate worked closely with its leather craftsmen to develop this rare gold leather for this very special iPhone case.

Quantities are extremely limited, so preorder the Diamond iPhone case today. 4-6 week delivery, free shipping.
Oh, free shipping, that's a relief. Having to pay for shipping would have been a deal-breaker for me.

It doesn't even look all that great. Those diamonds would be a bugger to protect, too.

Are you suggesting you'd need to protect the diamonds from something?? If yes, what?


The quality of those stones is pretty high up on the quality scale (VVS1 and H) for simply ornamental purposes.. Madness!!

Not if one uses a lubricant.

I think he means protecting them from getting knocked off, or stolen...

No, not from being damaged. I know diamonds are fairly sturdy beasts. I'd be more worried about them coming off the case.

I'd be more worried about taking the thing out in public and being a target for thieves.

If you got that case, you'd need another case to protect it. Might I suggest something made of a few cheap 3G iPhones for protection?

yeah well... you know - if someone buys anything as immorally expensive and as vomittingly designed as that, instead of... oooo.... giving to charity, they must have been born with a silver enema up their arse... or at least I think that's the correct expression...
