Factory footage showed Royal Pop-style watches being produced in China shortly after the Audemars Piguet x Swatch collaboration launched in May 2026.
Audemars Piguet and Swatch announced the Royal Pop as an official collection of eight pocket watches. The pieces shown in the factory footage were not identified as authorised Royal Pop products.
Buyers should distinguish official Royal Pop watches from third-party accessories and lookalike products. Swatch said the official collection went on sale at selected Swatch stores from 16 May 2026.
