Vertu, a luxury cell phone maker, has created yet another phone for discerning travelers: the Vertu Signature Pure Black. Why is it great for travelers? This phone is so indestructible you can throw it anywhere in your luggage and feel confident it won’t get so much as a scratch during travel (but we don’t suggest you test this theory… read on).

Vertu‘s Signature Pure Black is specially handcrafted with the PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) technique that is currently being used in watches. The PVD process is used to vaporize a block of Titanium Carbide at extremely high temperatures using a plasma beam in a vacuum chamber resulting in an extremely rugged surface.

Those in the know say this phone is simply impossible to scratch. I say, for a retail price around $15,000, I’ll take their word for it.
