38mm Space Grey People comment status here!

The SS WSB just moved up in tonight's date shuffle, from 4-6 wks to 2-3. The SG is still stuck at 4-6 with a late May delivery. You're probably right, but the SS showed more movement in 12 hrs than the SG did in 2 weeks. #

Yeah I'm just frustrated that my own 00:04:42 hasn't shipped
 
Ordered on 4/13 and had a June estimate. This morning it switched to 5/21-6/4! I guess now I have a specific date to count down to....
 
My 38mm AWS BSB originally for June now updated with 3-5 weeks 20 May to 2 June. Look promising. Ordered at 10/4 10:04PM AEST (5:04AM PST) to Brisbane Australia.

Apparently only 22% of orders have been fulfilled!!!!
Wow!!! Bs!
 
Just curious what the order confirmation time parameters are for 5/8-5/27 delivery of 38mm SG.

The earliest conf. time I've seen is xx:04:xx. What is the latest anyone has seen past xx:09:xx <(mine)>

Ordered a SG BSB 42mm today, April 26 at around 11AM CST, should I expect anything in the next week or so?

There's still people who ordered in the first 5 minutes that haven't been charged yet. A few people in tier 2 (5/13-5/28) window have been charged but most of us haven't. I think it's a good sign (at least for earlier orders) that the June window got pushed up to overlap with the tier 2 window but it's too early to say whether that will help more recent orders. Hook 'em.

Not sure why BI is putting the blame on Ahrendts unless someone from TC's office leaked the story to them. Ahrendts job description doesn't include is not product manufacturing and overall inventory logistics. In fact, TC is the supposed whiz a logistics, yet as CEO he has consistently failed in that department.

It was clear at the start of preorders when you ordered at 3 min after the store went live and customers were pushed back to well past launch day that Apple had very little actual inventory. Whether this was a failure or by design we won't know for some time. Maybe we'll get some clues today at the conference call.

But here is what is clear to me: what did Apple expect when it was massively pimping the watch from last fall up until pre-order? It should have been better prepared and TC should have to talk about what went wrong or why hardly any launch inventory was available when it had months to prepare.

I'm at xx:33 minutes for the 5/13 window for 38mm SB and haven't seen anyone mention a later time. FYI - the 42mm SB was already at June by then but it got pushed up to 5/29 - 6/11 this morning.
 
I got charged on Friday night and my order went to "Preparing for Shipment" on Saturday morning, followed by "Shipped" later that evening. It is scheduled to be delivered by 3pm today via UPS Next Day Air Saver.

So if you had your order change on Saturday (UPS Air can be done on weekends), you'll be getting your Apple Watch today. I ordered at 3:06pm EST with a 04/24-05/08 delivery date.
 
My status just changed from june to "20 Mai, 2015 - 02 Jun, 2015 by Expressversand"

Ordered 1 hour after official pre-order start. 🙂

Couldn't agree more. Granted we didn't know what the apple watch would be like until they did their formal announcement a few weeks before preorder but they hyped it up. People have been anxious since last fall. They should of been more prepared! In all honesty, the crap excuse of certain Apple reps saying how this was an unseen venture is bs. They should of known.. "If you build it, they will come". if they were frantically worried this product wouldn't do well, why offer so many different options? They could of very well said pick one of four. (Ie. 38/42mm white band or 38/42mm black band) then say different options of bands will be available to swap or purchase at the Apple Store. It would of put inventory primarily focused on that. And I don't like the fact that they have introduced band swapping because of the major delays. Therefore, people are ordering a model that is in stock and while holding on to the previous order, waiting to see which will arrive first. It's a huge mess and TC was really hoping to make a better splash. Failed, in my opinion.
 
I got my shipment notification for my XX:02:55 April 10th order at noon yesterday and my tracking number still doesn't work... I hope it shows up today!
🙁
 
My status just changed from "June" to "may 20 - jun 2"

Ordered yesterday from Spain, to the French Apple Online Store 🙄
 
aarrgghh no movement at all on my 05:32 and 06:29, both 38mm SG. Still processing, no charge on cc, no email, no change in delivery estimate. Supposedly Applecare has been approved by my bank but not sure where rep saw that because my bank statement shows no hold or charge. Yes, officially whining.
 
As I stated on another post, tons of 42mm SG shipping lately, but I haven't hardly seen any 38mm shipping or even status updates. Very poor planning on Apple's part.

I understand supply constraints, but most of the people that ordered 38mm within the first 5 minutes haven't seen any updates to their order. Meanwhile a lot/most of the 42mm within that time frame have either changed to "Preparing Shipment", "Shipped" or even received their order.

Right now, I feel it to be a miracle if I receive mine by the end of the week, Apple really need to make a statement if they are having issues with a certain model.

Hell, I'd even take one of the emails about them working hard to get the order out or whatever the heck that email says, which people are calling the "email of death".

Over the weekend the movement for each day seemed to start around 8AM pacific, so we'll see what what today holds. I'm just glad that the :06 people now seem to be on the clock; I'm guessing you'll see yours by wednesday-thursday.

I still have no good feeling for how many are between you and me though 🙂20). I have for some reason targeted May 3, a week from today, as my delivery date. It's a hunch, a premonition, something the little voices that otherwise give me great advice are telling me.

I hope you're right - I'd be thrilled at this point to get it by mid-week. Hope yours comes soon too!

@tk1337 - yup, May 13-27.
