The Royal Pop Ocho Negro SSX03W101N is a collaboration between Audemars Piguet and Swatch that made its debut in 2026. This piece stands out in the Royal Pop collection as a striking black-and-white Lépine-style timepiece. Its case, crafted from a black Bioceramic, is paired with a distinctive white octagonal bezel, creating a bold visual contrast that is most prominent among the collection's six two-hand models.

With a case diameter of 40.0 mm, extending to 44.2 x 53.2 mm when clipped, it has a thickness of 8.4 mm. The entire construction—including the crown, hexagonal screws, and holder clip—is made of Bioceramic. The removable clip feature enables the watch head to be attached to a supplied black calfskin lanyard with contrasting white stitching. The black dial showcases a tapisserie pattern, housing the AP × Swatch and Royal Pop logos, and presents central hours and minutes, omitting a seconds display, with the crown positioned at the 12 o'clock mark. Hands and hour markers are enhanced with Grade A Super-LumiNova for blue luminescence. The white bezel features a vertical satin finish, adorned with eight black hexagonal Bioceramic screws, maintaining the iconic octagonal shape derived from the Royal Oak design. Both the front and back of the watch are protected by sapphire crystals with anti-reflective coatings, while the transparent case back offers a glimpse of the manual-winding SISTEM51 movement.
