You get to see luxury goods and services in many situations of your life. Sometimes, the level of luxury can be beyond your understanding and liking. In such cases, the amount of bling on these products can be way too much for your liking. In case of services, the pampering can be way overboard for your tastes.

Harry Winston Opus Eleven watch
A couple of years back, Harry Winston introduced their prestige watches named Opus Eleven. The key element of the is the use of an extremely complex mechanism that deconstructs time and reconstructs it back at the turn of every hour. The owner can see the time at the turn of every hour only. Then, the hour will split in to multiple parts and move around until it becomes the next hour after 60 minutes. The prestige watches from Harry Winston use multiple gears and cylinders to accomplish this result.
Why do you consider this watch design an extreme one? The creation of complex prestige watches has their significance in horology. But, it does not matter much for a 21st century youngster who uses his or her cell phone to know time. The current crop of people does not give much importance to watches. The price tag of the model that ranges between $220,000 and $300,000 is definitely at a very high range. In such a scenario, prestige watches that show the hour only once every hour is really obscenely overpriced.

This iPhone can definitely vie for the world’s most expensive phone tag. Rose gold and platinum used in the iPhone adds to its luster.
