Vertu Constellation Monogram Collection celebrates 10 years of shocking prices
by admin on Mar.15, 2008, under Vertu
Hard to believe it but Vertu – maker of precious-metal-clad cellphones with ridiculous price-tags – have managed to survive for ten whole years, and to celebrate they’ve created limited editions of their Constellation range. Named the Monogram collection, after the Vertu V-embossed leather back, the handset will be available in five colours: Pewter, Green, Red, Skye Blue or Cerise.
Adding the logo to the fine-grain leather apparently takes four hours, after which Vertu applies a special protective layer. Still, if it were mine I don’t think I’d put it in the same pocket as my keys. Spec-wise, the Constellation isn’t anything special: EDGE, quadband GSM and Bluetooth 2.0 are pretty much as good as it gets. The Constellation Monogram collection will be available from April 1st.
