Sure, you could buy a regular iPhone 6S like everyone else. But that really doesn't say anything about your unwavering love for Russia President Vladimir Putin, does it?
Russian jeweler Caviar — known for Russia-themed luxury remakes of Apple products, including the iPhone 5S and the Apple Watch — has made a phone with Putin's golden head encrusted on the back.
Called the "Caviar Ti Gold Supremo Putin Anniversario Edizione 63," the company released the device in honor of Putin's 63rd birthday on Wednesday. Appropriately, only 63 copies will be sold.

The phone's back is made of titanium with gold details that include Putin's profile, the country's emblem and a plaque with a verse from Russia's national anthem. Buyers get a "luxurious" wooden case, and those interested can pick up a carrying case for the phone as well, starting at $306.

The specifications of the phone don't differ from the regular iPhone 6S, but only two versions — 64GB or 128GB — are available. Hear that, Apple? Nobody likes the 16GB iPhone.
The price for the 64GB version of this magnificent smartphone is 199,000 rubles ($3,193). Keeping up with traditional Apple fashion, the 128GB variant is quite a bit more expensive at 209,000 rubles ($3,356).
