What to know

Green Eight may be the simplest colour statement in the Royal Pop family: a green dial, green Bioceramic case and bezel, and a coordinating calfskin lanyard. The tapisserie-inspired texture and eight hexagonal screws keep the watch unmistakably connected to the Royal Oak, even though the familiar integrated bracelet has disappeared.

This is a Lépine-style pocket watch with the crown above the 40 mm case and two hands for hours and minutes. A new manually wound SISTEM51 movement sits under its decorated sapphire exhibition back; on the dial side, an antireflective sapphire crystal protects Super-LumiNova-equipped hands and markers. The watch can be detached from its lanyard attachment and displayed or carried in different ways. Green Eight was part of the 16 May 2026 Royal Pop launch.
