DeBethune (previously mentioned) has released the 4th in their "Dream Watch" series, in this case not a wristwatch, but a watch mounted in a carved iPhone case. A limited edition of 12, this takes the basic design of their piece (the DB25) from the 2011 Only Watch auction and mounts it in a carved titanium iPhone case.

Moreover, the carved shape is reminiscent of a Star Trek officer's badge.

Altogether, this thing is a rich geek's dream toy -- quite a good and well-targeted design...
