<p>The Ancort Diamond Crypto Smartphone is the priciest cell phone in the world.  Moscow&#8217;s JSC <a href="http://www.cryptogsm.ru/diamond/background_eng/">Ancort</a> company and renowned Austrian jeweler, <a href="http://www.cryptogsm.ru/diamond/pa_eng/">Peter Aloisson</a>, who created the world&#8217;s first diamond encrusted mobile phone (way back in 1997), teamed to create the Diamond Crypto Smartphone.</p>
<p><a href="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=16" rel="attachment wp-att-16" title="crypto.gif"></a><a href="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=16" rel="attachment wp-att-16" title="crypto.gif"><img src="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/crypto.gif" alt="crypto.gif" /></a></p>
<p>The phone is made of solid platinum . The Ancort logo and navigation key are 18 carat rose gold, with 28 round cut diamonds circling the navigation key.  25 1/2 princess cut diamonds adorn the sides of the phone. There are also 8 blue diamonds.</p>
<p><strong>Cost</strong>: $1.3 million</p>
<p>Previously, the most expensive cell phone in the world was this Limited Edition by Goldvish (Geneva): 18 carat gold, 120 carats of VSS-I grade diamonds. Cost: an ice cold mil.</p>
<p><a href="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.wordpress.com/2007/08/16/worlds-most-expensive-cell-phone-ancort-diamond-crypto-smartphone/22/" rel="attachment wp-att-22" title="goldvish.gif"><img src="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/goldvish.gif" alt="goldvish.gif" /></a></p>

<p>My favorite is <em>Boucheron for Vertu</em> Signature Cobra, made with 439 rubies from Paris jeweler Boucheron.  Only 8 Cobras exist.  Cost: $310,000.</p>
<p><img src="http://theworldsmostexpensiveblog.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/vertu-borcheron.gif" alt="vertu-borcheron.gif" />The Cobra is biting a pear diamond and curled around a round one.  Notice the emerald eyes.</p>
