Swatch Launches Royal Pop: A Colorful Pocket Watch Mashup of Royal Oak

TL;DR Summary

It features a manually wound Sistem51 movement with a 90-hour power reserve, sapphire crystals, and eight colorways. The case mimics a Royal Oak but is designed as a pocket watch worn on a color-matched calfskin lanyard, with two styles (Lépine and Savonnette) and a crown-position difference. Priced at $400 (Lépine) or $420 (Savonnette), it hits select Swatch stores May 16 with a one-per-location-per-day limit.
