What do you get the man who has everything?

The Emperador by Imperiali Genève, a stupefying work of art/opulence that took some 100 craftsmen from 27 different trades approximately 18,000 hours to make. Only 12 will be produced each year.
Its practical use: the care and feeding of cigars. The tools it relies on therefore include a three-flame table lighter, laser-guided guillotine cutter accurate to the millimeter, and climate-control mechanism that maintains 70% humidity at 16-18°C regardless of external conditions.
Inside, 12 gold-leaf-wrapped Grand Cru cigars in individual glass tubes encircle a 323-component Swiss tourbillon watch timepiece. The case itself is protected by a security code and unveils itself — Transformer-like — via a series of touch-activated sensors.
Manservants and concubines sold separately.
