Swatch × Audemars Piguet Royal Pop Green

1️⃣ Description

The Royal Pop Collection is a groundbreaking collaboration between Swatch and Audemars Piguet that reimagines the iconic Royal Oak as a colorful pocket watch. Inspired by Swatch's original 1980s POP watches and AP's legendary Royal Oak, the collection features Bioceramic cases, manual-wind SISTEM51 movements, and multiple ways to wear or display the watch. 

2️⃣ Why This Matters

This is the first collaboration between Swatch and the independently owned Audemars Piguet. Rather than creating a budget Royal Oak wristwatch, the brands chose a bold and unexpected pocket-watch format. The collection became one of the most talked-about watch releases of 2026, generating massive queues and sell-outs worldwide.

3️⃣ Style Vibe

Pop Art meets haute horology. Think bright colors, playful luxury, collectible design, and a modern reinterpretation of one of the most famous watch designs ever created.

5️⃣ The Overall Feel

The Royal Pop Collection is one of the most unexpected and collectible Swatch collaborations to date. Instead of simply shrinking luxury into an affordable wristwatch, it creates something genuinely new: a colorful, mechanical pocket watch that combines Swatch's playful creativity with Audemars Piguet's design heritage. For collectors, it's a fun, disruptive piece that stands apart from the MoonSwatch and Blancpain collaborations.
