Ultra-bling Ambilight TV

Philip Wong | Jun 07, 2007

Some say diamonds are a girl's best friend, while countries go to war (watch Blood Diamond) supplying them. If you are into the bling factor of these precious stones, remember to drop by Courts Tampines megastore for a sneak peek of Philips' Diamond FlatTV. Developed to commemorate its millionth Ambilight flat panel, this one-of-a-kind 42-incher features a stunning 2,250 diamond-encrusted frame.

To coincide with its Singapore appearance from June 15 to 24, a diamond set worth S$3,000 (US$1,973.68) will be given out in a lucky draw for any Ambilight TV purchased during the showcase. As for the price for this glittery affair? US$220,000 is a ballpark figure, though the proceeds will be going to charity instead. That will be after an auction at the end of its world tour which will include New Zealand, Malaysia and Thailand. For those with deep pockets, no further details of the auction were available at press time.
