I think there is mounting evidence they are over stocked on blue.

-I ordered "late" at 3:08 and mine prepared to ship and shipped as early as anyone else.
-They offered blue models to devs for early delivery next week.
-What just happened to you.

While I prefer navy, like my iPhone 6 leather case / iPad case, it happens to match our company logo / t-shirt color perfectly, so my boss and I went blue to show company pride!
 
wow. I just was telling someone in a different thread no way an ordered placed yesterday would deliver friday....
 
I rolled the dice and ordered the same one. Let's see which of the THREE actually ship. Odds are they'll cancel one. Oh well, if I have to wait anyway...
 
i dont know if i want to be caught walking around with a blue band though..

As I mentioned earlier, Apple is giving the option of exchanging the band, instead of the whole watch, at their stores.

Actually, the blue band is growing on me although I originally ordered black.
 
Just ordered one to try it out, thanks to you and pshifrin for the info - I admit it's incredible impatience on my part, but I'm even thinking this is going to move before my 38mm Space Grey Sport which had the original 4/24-5/8 window.

I also admit that that honestly, I probably should have gotten the silver at pre-order - it just looks better with all of the bands (especially the Milanese, which I want).

So here's to us getting watches that somehow magically ship today...and hopefully not getting charged for two watches :)
 
It's not unreasonable for this to happen for the least popular combinations. These boxes are sitting somewhere in a warehouse and no one is opening and swapping bands...

its the same watch face as the unattainable SG sports, just pay 49$ more and get the SG in store. no biggy
 
Thing is, this makes my 3rd order. I wonder which one they'll cancel. I really don't care anymore. I never really 'needed' it anyway, just got caught up in the hype.

I really need a life...:(
 
i wonder if this is the same case for green sport band ones? ships right away.. i thought i saw someone said it took only 5 days to ship and they list as june.
 
Praying to the Apple Watch gods. Missed out on 3:01 pre-order and I decided to hold off and buy in person in June.... But... Just ordered 38mm blue because I couldn't stand it anymore. Will post updates. ⌚️
 
Hi I phoned up apple 10 times and they kept saying it would be here in June after I was emailed at 00:000 saying they tired to take money out my account but i didn't know anything

My blue 38mm has been marked at preparing for shipment when should I get my shipping info #???
