Audemars Piguet and Swatch have unveiled the revolutionary "Royal Pop" collection, featuring eight vibrant Bioceramic pocket watches that bridge fine watchmaking and pop culture. Inspired by the 1972 Royal Oak and 1980s Swatch POP, these timepieces feature AP's iconic octagonal bezel and Petite Tapisserie dial. Powered by the SISTEM51 mechanical movement with a 90-hour power reserve, the collection offers versatile wearing options through premium calfskin lanyards, allowing the watch to be worn as a pendant, wrist accessory, or used as a desk clock. Available from May 16, 2026.
