It comes with AirPods that have 30 black diamonds.

If you like your smartphone to have plenty of gemstones, Miami, FL-based Gresso has the product for you.

The company is releasing a version of the iPhone 7 that includes 1,450 black diamonds, along with 18-karat gold accents, CNET reports. The diamonds are on the back panel of the grade-5 titanium-bodied phone.

The price tag is $500,000. As part of the package, you also get a pair of AirPods complete with 30 black diamonds.

AppleInsider notes that this product won’t exactly have a large production run. Only three of the Lux model, part of the Black Diamond collection, will be made.

Gresso is also selling some less expensive, but still blingy, versions of the iPhone 7 starting in the $3,000 range. These, too, are limited-run productions, with only 999 units to be made.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
