Yeah I'm still waiting too. I got my confirmation at at xx:13 and I'm hoping my 42mm milanese loop comes in soon as well. Not sure where I should expect my package to ship from if I live in Illinois. I haven't been charged yet either.

Ordered 38mm Space Gray Sports Watch couple minutes after I wanted to because the app didn't want to cooperate with my delivery address.

Same delivery window as thread title
Buddy ordered 42mm later in the morning, and his dates moved up from June to end of May.

I think thats promising for us though. The way I look at it, if they are moving the June dates up into May that means they have production ramped up enough to meet that demand, which hopefully means they will fill our orders sooner as well.
I'm same window, confirmation came in at :09 and mine shipped today and will be here tomorrow. They're catching up to the demand on this mode faster than the space grey sport is what I can see

Looks like we could have a good amount of movement this afternoon and evening. There are approximately 5 plains inbound to Alaska from various locations in China. They are coming from (Shenzhen, 3 x Hong Kong, and Shanghai) 1 Hong Kong lands in approx 1 hour, Shenzhen lands in approx 4hrs and 14mins, 1 Hong Kong lands in 5hrs and 33mins, 1 Hong Kong in apprx 4hrs, and the Shanghai in approx 4hrs 23mins)
LETS PRAY WE 42mm SS PEOPLE SEE MOVEMENT
Just got an origin scan in Harrisburg, pa fyi
So far with the
Watch the change has been happening a short time to a number of hours after the flights land in Anchorage. Iphones were happening In china and many were already staged stateside. Also fedex delivered some iphones as well. Watch I've strictly seen UPS stateside deliveries.Nothing like getting the "Apple Watch is here, order now" emails. When they can't even fill the orders for people that ordered minutes after the pre orders started.
I ordered two watches soon after store opening. Got the first 42mm bcb ss on the 24th. By the time I ordered the 38mm sport bsb shipping had slipped to 4-6 weeks. Confirmation email at 3:05, just got confirmation that my second watch shipped. Is people canceling orders? I really didn't expect this to ship for at east a week or two.
That is good to know! Maybe I'll see some sort of action before the weekend!
Fingers crossed!
Others are playing with their watches while I just sit and try and work out how it is that I haven't seen any movement at all
No matter who you reach out to, call, chat, go to the store .. this is what you may expect them to answer or read a script for this model as of today 4/28 ..
1. Ask your order number (make it seem like magical .. he/she may have something new for me)
2. Confirm your Address, etc with you for security purposes (like they are digging into some Eyes only record or something)
3. Read the same thing you have been reading since 4/10 on apple.com/orderstatus. They read to you the obvious.
4. Give you the same instructions that you already know and have been doing tirelessly since 4/10. come back to check on apple.com/orderstatus.
They may also tell you - you'll be notified when the order ships through email and you'll have that tracking number - which you may use to then go to an extent of tracking the flight, the UPS/Fedex Truck Number, where is the watch in the flight and you won't stop until the UPS truck stops outside and then Delivery Guy knocks your door. You'll behave as if you've not even been bothered and not open the door right away - where as we know you'd be counting him to your door .. he knocks in 5,4,3,2,1 .. tck tck tck, you would rather take 2 mins to open to hide the excitement from the Delivery guy !!
5. Ask them about the model, if has been shipped to others - they will tell everyone something that you can never on earth figure .. it must have been shipped to folks who ordered early, however yours waits it's time in the queue. Depends on when you ordered !! which to my knowledge is no one ordered that early to have it by now. Unless you are a Apple product reviewer or columnist - no one from the public has this on their wrists.
6. Then you will wonder - why did I chat, call with Apple .. may be even think of cursing the Apple Rep.
7. Then end up not doing so, because these are bots reading what is given to them.
8. No matter how much you'll crib, they ain't shipping until the day comes. What is right now for you on apple.com/orderstatus .. it is .. accept it or not
It's plain and simple guys - you'll have it soon, no matter if it's a temp charge on your card, letter of death or a letter from Tim Cook or his secretary ... it'll be there sooner or later and you'll be paying for it $999 + AC+ + Taxes .. so wait for it ... it's coming .. I know we ordered an expensive one and even I'm pissed off like anyone that I ordered in like first 3 mins of the pre-orders opening. But take it .. Apple are screwing not just our experience but their reputation a bit so that's why they gave us a broader and longer delivery estimate. So chill and come back on May 12th unless you really are in "Prepared for Shipment" stage now for 42mm SS LB
