Inspired by Audemars Piguet’s legendary Royal Oak collection, the watches incorporate octagonal bezels and crowns crafted from durable Swatch Bioceramic. The cases are secured with signature hexagonal Bioceramic screws, while the vertically satin-finished case and bezel create a clean and refined appearance.

The collection also features sapphire crystals with anti-reflective coating for enhanced clarity and scratch resistance. Every model includes a premium calfskin lanyard with contrasting stitching and a removable Bioceramic attachment system, reinforcing both comfort and versatility.

Movement and Performance

At the heart of the Royal Pop collection is a hand-wound version of the renowned SISTEM51 mechanical movement, configured in a classic Lépine-style layout with the crown positioned at 12 o’clock.

Recognized for its Swiss engineering and simplified mechanical architecture, the SISTEM51 movement delivers reliable performance and an engaging manual-winding experience. The transparent sapphire-glass caseback reveals the movement while showcasing a digitally printed Pop Art design that highlights the artistic identity of the collaboration.
