This isn't the first time Stuart Hughes has customized an extremely expensive piece of consumer technology. In 2010, Hughes introduced a solid gold plated iPad with an asking price of $190,000. He also created a diamond-covered iPhone 4 that went for nearly $8 million. (The phone, dubbed "the world's most expensive phone" was covered in over 500 diamonds). Only two of those phones were sold.

His company also makes luxury aquariums with mammoth tusk veneers and an entire house in Switzerland with gold and platinum fixtures and bits of meteoric stone and raptor bone shavings embedded throughout.
