Sample vs. swatch

Sample and swatch,中文都叫樣本或樣品,但sample比較是通稱,swatch則常用來指被裁成小塊布(常集結成冊)的樣品布,或者印刷業,用來比對顏料和紙材的樣品紙或色卡:
"Swatch" is a sample of cloth used as an example to demonstrate the color, pattern, and texture of a fabric.

On my mind: 
Does anyone know that the famous watch brand "Swatch" has anything to do with the word we just learnt?
