Somerset store Detroit PERMANENTLY canceled

Good job Detroit mob. The mall owner, who also owns the Mall at Millenia in Orlando, has decided that those two locations will permanently be forbidden from carrying the AP collab.

Is it worth it to buy the AP x Swatch for Resell?

Hi everyone, my bf wants to buy a AP x swatch because he thinks that it could be good to resell is this true? It’s selling right now for 500-600 in stores but the resell right now is 1.8-3k. He wants to keep it for a while thinking the resell will keep going up but I was also reading the moons watch people thought the same thing but the value went down after the first type. What is the best idea?

Hershel passing down the family Royal Pop

Hershel: “This belonged to my grandfather. He gave it to me, and now I’m giving it to you.”

hands Glenn a plastic Royal Pop Swatch

“This watch kept time through war, hardship, and three generations of men pretending quartz was acceptable.”

Glenn, trying not to cry:
“Thank you.”

Hershel:
“Don’t thank me. Thank your mother. She waited outside the Swatch store at 6am for this limited-edition shitter.”

A family heirloom.
Made of plastic.
Water resistant to a sad sneeze.
Truly, civilisation was worth saving.

I saw a X post about being able to buy the Royal Pop online

I knows it’s bs since I tried the UK and US site and it’s obviously not there but interested in seeing it’s available in any other country

Refused to sell me the watch.

Hi, everyone!
I stood all night outside the Swatch store last night, queued for the new collab.
When the store opened, they told us that there’s only 15 pieces, but they sold only 14, and for the 15th, it was between two women and the store manager couldn’t figure out who to sell to, then they both left without a watch (on their own will). So I stepped in, and asked why can’t I buy it (I was next in line) and got no reply. The watch was there, me and my wallet were there, but they didn’t sell me the watch.

Do you think that’s fair? was it supposed to be like that? 

I feel like I got scammed and wasted a whole day in my life just standing in line to get nothing.

P.S. Still bought a Moonswatch moonphase just because I thought it looks cool.

P.P.S I’m not salty because I couldn’t get, I get that’s it’s not guaranteed. But it was like right in front of me after those 2 women decided to leave it there, but the seller just hit me with a no…

Hot Take

The funniest part of this whole AP x Swatch release is watching the watch community have a complete identity crisis over it.

Half the people are calling it disrespectful to AP heritage.

The other half are camping outside boutiques for a plastic watch.

Meanwhile AP just got more mainstream attention this week than they’ve had in years.

Love it or hate it, “Royal Pop” might end up being one of the most culturally important watch releases in a long time. Curious where everyone here actually stands after the dust settles.

Realistically do you see your self pulling this off 💀

Around a bag sure maybe why not it’s an accessory after all, but hanging from your clothes, from your belt around your waist

That seems like pushing it, the most probable usecase scenario I see for the regular Joe is maybe a wristwatch using an aftermarket adapter, hanging off a bag as long as it doesn’t get stolen or playing around with it for a while, posting a few pictures and then in the drawer like all the other knickknacks that don’t get to see the light of day

Who knows they just might last longer than the Labubus

[Swatch x AP] Royal Pop - Seen today (May 17) in Kyoto. Unsurprisingly none for sale.

I am currently travelling in Japan. I have been fooling myself trying to get lucky and maybe find a Swatch x AP Royal Pop for sale in Tokyo and Kyoto, but of course none are available here. From what I understand everything's been scooped up even before they got to the stores? (I probably misunderstood the explanations given to me in very broken English).
