Audemars Piguet x Swatch Bioceramic Royal Pop A modular pocket watch collection developed by Swatch with Audemars Piguet. The Bioceramic Royal Pop reworks the 1980s Swatch POP idea through Royal Oak codes, from the octagonal bezel and eight hexagonal screws to the Petite Tapisserie dial. It does not behave like a traditional wristwatch. The watch module can be lifted from its frame, worn around the neck on one of three calfskin lanyards, clipped to a bag, or placed on a desk with its removable stand. The Bioceramic case has a silky matte finish, made from a blend of two-thirds ceramic and one-third castor oil-based biomaterial. Inside sits the manual-winding version of SISTEM51, offering around 90 hours of power reserve, with its patented screw-free construction visible through the caseback. Anti-reflective sapphire crystal on both sides keeps the dial and movement in clear view. The case measures 40 mm, extending to 44.2 x 53.2 mm with the clip and frame, with an 8.4 mm thickness.
