Meet A New Kind Of Luxe Apple Watch That Has The Grandeur Of Royalties
Luxe up Apple Watch or any type of gadgets is not new, but I have to say what Russian luxe customizer, Aurum Edition, did is pretty mind-blowing.

At least, that’s my first impression. TBH, I have never heard of Aurum Edition until I saw a review of its Monarch Counsel Apple Watch and it was a love at first sight.

The watch has a quite sizeable case of 46.5 mm and while so, it is does not look rough – thanks in part to the 10.6 mm thickness. And it weighs mere 46g without strap.
