My ETA was already June for the Watch.. This is getting a tad frustrating.
 
I gave up on my April 10 xx:16:00 38mm SGS preorder, and bought a SS WSB yesterday morning at 6am, for shipment to Canada. And got more movement in 24 hours than in 2 1/2 weeks of waiting for my space gray - looks like it'll arrive in a couple of days.

This is for a watch ordered 16 days later. What a giant mess of a launch.

But you're talking about stainless steel with a white strap vs. gray aluminum with a black strap. Those are very contrasting looks, and it now seems obvious way more people went with SG and Black than they anticipated. Just like the gold iPhone 5S sold out much quicker than people (and Apple) expected.

I know I saw very little of the space gray in the promotional material leading up to the launch. The fact that they're moving people who were stuck in "June" up a little seems a positive sign for the rest of us waiting for SG.
 
I was charged Sunday and it supposedly shipped Sunday. Tracking number does not work. Apple says its ups issue and ups says its apples issue.

Charged!

CHARGED this morning @ about 3:30 CDT.
According to the text I received from my CC, my payment was processed by :apple: at 4:42am EDT, which is more than an hour after I submitted my order - email confirmation at xx:06:36 on 4/10.

No UPS tracking info yet but I'm pretty hopeful it will get to me by Friday!

Thanks to all of you keeping the rest of us informed (and at time entertained:))

Best of luck to those still waiting.

I use Gmail so I went into the message and in the upper right-hand corner of the message, there is a drop-down menu. Select "Show Original". It will look like a bunch of computer coding but near the top it will show the date and time received, including seconds.
As many have suggested, confirmation email time may not be the deciding factor since my order was not actually received by :apple: for over an hour after I submitted it. This may be affected by the CC you used or your internet speed, or both. Since you are so close to me in order time, though, I'd imagine you will be loving your new :apple:Watch by this time next week. Hang in there!
