Apple did something similar with their ceramic/gold composite watch - there's some good info here: https://leancrew.com/all-this/2015/03/apple-gold/ https://leancrew.com/all-this/2015/03/apple-gold/ Unsurprisingly, paying a huge premium for a watch with less gold in it wasn't very appealing to people.
