Every model in the AP x Swatch Royal Pop collection names the number eight — the eight screws of the Royal Oak — in a different language and colour. The Huit Blanc is the French one: "eight in white," the cleanest, most minimal member of the family. Like every Royal Pop, though, it ships on a calfskin lanyard alone, so this crisp piece stays a pocket watch. This Royal Pop strap & case set — part of WatchCollab's Audemars Piguet x Swatch straps — sorts it: it turns your Huit Blanc into an everyday wristwatch in seconds, with no modification and no compromise on that clean white.
Built around the exact case geometry of the Royal Pop, the set pairs a colour-matched white FKM band with a precision adapter case, so your Audemars Piguet x Swatch Royal Pop Huit Blanc finally moves from pocket to wrist — and back whenever you like.
The Royal Pop Huit Blanc: eight, in white
The Huit Blanc keeps every Royal Oak cue — the octagonal bezel, the eight hexagonal screws, the Petite Tapisserie dial — in a crisp, minimal white, powered by a hand-wound SISTEM51 movement with over 90 hours of reserve. It's the summer-ready, tan-friendly one — fresh, bright and endlessly easy to style, which is exactly why it belongs on a wrist rather than in a drawer. Our strap and case set is built to keep it there.
From pocket watch to everyday wristwatch
Out of the box the Huit Blanc only offers lanyard wear. The WatchCollab set closes that gap with two parts that work together: a precision adapter case that cradles the watch head snugly and rattle-free, and a premium white rubber Royal Pop strap ready to wear the moment it arrives. Fitting takes seconds and is fully reversible — the watch returns to its original lanyard configuration just as easily.
Built for the Royal Pop's exact geometry
This is no generic band. Case and strap are engineered specifically for the Royal Pop and work with both layouts of the collection — crown at 3 and crown at 12. The adapter frames the watch so the octagonal bezel, the eight screws and the white Petite Tapisserie dial stay on full display, while protecting the case edges from knocks.
Premium materials, all-day comfort
The strap is high-grade FKM rubber — supple from the first wear, sweat- and water-resistant, UV-stable and easy to wipe clean so the white stays crisp, and hypoallergenic for sensitive skin. Light on the wrist and built for daily wear, sport and travel. The adapter case is precision-machined for a secure, scratch-free hold.
Keep it crisp — or add contrast
This set is tuned to the Huit Blanc's clean white identity, but every WatchCollab Royal Pop strap and case is cross-compatible. Keep the fresh all-white look, or ground it with a deeper colour from the family. Fancy a bolder shade? See the Royal Pop Green Eight strap & case in green.
How to fit your Royal Pop Huit Blanc strap and case
- Remove the Huit Blanc from its lanyard.
- Seat the watch head into the WatchCollab adapter case until it clicks securely into place.
- Attach the rubber strap and adjust to your wrist.
- Check the hold with a gentle pull — there should be no play. You're ready to wear.
Caring for your strap
White shows marks fastest, so wipe the strap with mild soap and a soft cloth whenever needed, and rinse with fresh water after heavy sweat or exposure. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged direct sunlight in storage. With minimal care, the FKM rubber keeps its bright white and suppleness for years.
Why WatchCollab
WatchCollab designs independent accessories built to the exact specs of collaboration watches like the Royal Pop Huit Blanc — a purpose-made fit, not a generic band, plus a wide, cross-compatible colour range. WatchCollab is not affiliated with Audemars Piguet or Swatch, and the watch is not included.
FAQ
Why is it called "Huit Blanc"?
"Huit Blanc" is French for "eight white" — a nod to the eight screws of the Royal Oak, here in the collection's cleanest white.
Does the white strap stay white?
Yes — the FKM rubber is UV-stable and wipes clean easily, so with light care the white stays crisp rather than yellowing.
Will it damage or alter my watch?
No. The adapter case holds the Huit Blanc without modification and can be removed at any time.
Is this an official Audemars Piguet or Swatch product?
No. It's an independent WatchCollab accessory, compatible with the Royal Pop. The watch itself is not included.
