Footnotes
Swatch launched the POP-Swatch line in 1986. The main case 'pops' out of the plastic frame, offering versatile wear and easy interchangeability of watch straps. Renowned for its vibrant and bold aesthetics, this collection exemplifies Swatch's commitment to innovative fashion in wristwatches.
"Back in the eighties I had a dozen original Swatches, including several transparent "jellies", a couple of Keith Harings and some of the early constructivist designs. I sold them all a few years ago but kept this back as I liked the Orb so much (I think it's one of the most original things she ever designed). My watch collection used to be ridiculous, but I only have a few left that I use. This, like most Swatches, I didn't buy one to wear. You only bought a Swatch to stare at it lovingly in its case. That was the nineties for you."
- Dylan Jones
