Something gives me a feeling (especially because they are so eager to get them in stores June 1st) we will see a huge push over the next few days to complete a majority of the early preorders.
WHY do you think they are eager to get them in June 1. Cook simply said June, that definately DOES NOT lead to a June 1 time frame, no more than late april-july means early 2015. did i miss an article somewhere stating june 1?
Come on lets go!!!! 2 flights arriving in KY soon. And one more from China on the way. http://uk.flightaware.com/live/iphone
There were a few articles stating that they are already beginning to stock bands and the senior vp of retail sales said that it would be online only through May. None of that is a direct statement of June 1st and there has not been any official announcement of this, but with "online only" going though "May" leads some to believe that they will be available in stores June 1. Hopefully Apple will be clearer in the future about....everything.
The flights arriving in KY are the watches that were charged last night/this morning.
I believe that, by the 2nd week of June, you will see some stores stocked with the versions that are currently in stock and shipping almost overnight, such as the 38mm SS and 38mm Silver Sport.
There was a wave of charges last night. Covered everyone from the XX:18 into XX:23, for the US at least. I firmly believe that those watches are on those flights headed to KY, which is where they get checked in by UPS, assigned a tracking number, and then are dispatched to be delivered. Since that takes all morning to happen, it coincides that most tracking numbers for the previous night's charges start appearing around noon EST the next day, with a delivery date of the following day. (Charged Wed night/Thur morning, tracking number available Thur morning/afternoon, delivery Friday.)
This also means that anyone charged last night should have their watch on Friday. Anyone charged today forward won't have their watch until Tuesday, at the earliest, due to Memorial Day holiday on Monday.

No I'm not....born and raised a Hoosier...at least through Bobby's regime at Bloomington.
Hey you took cuts! My 42mm SG BSB order was placed at 05:35 EDT, Detroit, Mi and mine is still sitting in "Processing..." Oh well, perhaps mine will go PFS within the next day or two...
The bright side is once Canada orders are fulfilled, more watch can be allocated to the US, then speed will really catch up.
I'm in {hopeful} agreement with this. I ordered at just before noon on the 10th, and have a bet with my kid that I'll see the watch by next Friday.
Dude I ordered at 10:48 am edt and I don't think I will get my watch until 6 months from now. Smh.
This could mean that you get another delivery time update later today. This is what happened to a lot of people last round.
You can set up an acct at UPS..for their " UPS My Choice Service ". Should be in time to get your tracking info once it generates
Are you saying you ordered at 07:32am EST (local time?) This sounds like the latest order to switch to PFS if so[?]

Ahhh ...

Yep.... frustrating. I ordered at 6something est
Are you in Canada?
Again, Canada is way ahead of the US in terms of what order times are shipping.
The US is up to the XX:23 minute mark.
Canada is at 8 hours past preorders.
