Buy the Swatch Royal Pop in Uruguay

Montevideo, Punta del Este, Colonia, the Swatch boutiques across Uruguay did not receive any units of the Audemars Piguet x Swatch Royal Pop. The fourteen colorway pocket watch launched only in selected Swatch flagships in Europe, the United States, Japan, and a few Asian cities. In Latin America only Mexico got stock. Royal Pop Resale Service is based in Vienna, queues at the European boutiques on launch days, and ships to Uruguayan addresses through DHL Express. Prices start from €1,100 ex-VAT and run to about €3,200 for the rarer colorways.

Why you can't get one in Uruguay.

Uruguay has a small but stable luxury market, with most international watch presence in Montevideo and the seasonal Punta del Este boutiques. None of them received Royal Pop allocation. The closest stocking countries are Mexico and the United States, plus the European flagships in Paris, Milan, Madrid, Barcelona, Zurich, and Geneva. We queue at the European boutiques on launch days, buy at retail, and ship to your address in Uruguay. You pay retail in EUR plus service fee plus shipping. Uruguayan customs handles the import tax on the local side. Punta del Este addresses are no problem in the summer season.

How our sourcing service works.

Pick your colorway on https://swatchroyalpop.com/shop and pay in EUR through Stripe. Uruguayan Visa and Mastercard cards work for international transactions, and Apple Pay is supported. If the colorway is in our Vienna stock we ship the next business day. If we need to source it, we queue at the next European boutique drop and ship from Vienna once the piece is in our hands. Every order comes with the original Swatch box, the official papers, and a copy of the boutique receipt. You get DHL tracking when the parcel leaves our office.

Shipping to Uruguay.

We ship to Uruguay via DHL Express. Transit from Vienna to Montevideo is usually seven to twelve business days, including customs clearance. Uruguayan customs applies import duty plus VAT on the declared value, and DHL collects the amount from you on delivery. We declare the real purchase price with the Swatch boutique invoice attached, so the assessment is clean. Parcels are fully insured. If anything is delayed at Carrasco customs we stay in contact with DHL on your side until the watch clears. Most Uruguayan deliveries complete within two weeks door to door.
