Swatch x AP - OCHO NEGRO
At the heart of the AP x Swatch collaboration
The watches in the Royal Pop Collection are powered by a brand-new version of our signature SISTEM51 movement, redesigned as a hand-wound caliber that connects the wearer to the rich heritage of watchmaking.
The movement is on full display through a transparent sapphire caseback, complete with a Pop Art–inspired print that gives it a fun twist. The mainspring barrel adds another visual highlight, acting as both a standout detail and an indicator of the watch’s power reserve.
The Royal Pop Collection
The Royal Oak collection has been Audemars Piguet's icon since its debut in 1972. Defined by its bold stainless steel design, octagonal bezel with eight hexagonal screws, “tapisserie” dial and integrated bracelet, it stands as a symbol of innovation and avant‑garde craftsmanship in fine watchmaking.
By blending this legendary design DNA with the modular pop‑out spirit of Swatch’s POP line, we’ve created a collection that doesn’t just stand apart. It stands in a league all its own.
Wear it your way
The Royal Pop pocket watches are built for creative styling.
Wear them around your neck, on your wrist, in your pocket, or clipped to a bag, their modular design inspired by our iconic POP line, lets you switch things up as often as you like.
