Sovereign 18K Gold iPhone 18 Pro Max: Built Like a Bracelet
The Sovereign 18K Gold iPhone 18 Pro Max reads differently at a distance and up close. From across a room it is a brushed platinum-plated backplate, cool and architectural; in the hand, a vertical run down the centre resolves into individually forged links of 18K (750) solid gold.
The links are assembled the way a fine bracelet is built, not stamped as one piece, and weigh about 70 to 90 grams. Sovereign is part of our 18K Solid Gold collection.
Solid Gold in the Centre, Platinum Around It
Here is what is what: the vertical links are solid 18K gold and hold the real gold value, the surrounding field is platinum plating, and a 24K gold plated frame ties the two together. Clients buying for gold content should read our comparison of plating and solid gold.
Underneath is an unaltered Apple iPhone 18 Pro or Pro Max. Everything works as Apple designed, except MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging, which the metal back prevents.
What Apple Supplies Beneath the Links
Our goldsmiths work only on the exterior. Apple’s published figures for both models follow, from the Apple tech specs; Sovereign 18K is built at 1TB or 2TB.
No wireless charging on this edition: the cable does the work. A customised solid gold iPhone 18 Pro is not water resistant, so keep it away from water.
