Make sure you see it in person. Very often the 42mm looks too big on smaller wrists. Until you try it on yourself, you won't know for sure.
That's MY wrist. I tried it on and ordered it 5 minutes later. The 42mm looks even smaller than the Moto 360 on my wrist.
That was not directed towards you, but the one who asked you to post the picture. I have posted pictures of a 42mm with sport band on my 155mm wrist and it looks huge.
This is a disclaimer for those who would see that picture and assume that the 42mm is too big.
Same for me. I'm not sure I've heard of anyone that got that model with earlier delivery.
And yet just a few posts before yours:
EDIT: Oh wait, he ordered the 42 foot SG Sport model, so that's quite a bit different. Kind of big for a watch, eh?
I ordered the 42" SG Sports Watch, had a major problem at checkout though... I was on straight away at 08:01am, funny because many reported problems of the app working before the website, but for me it was the other way round! I had my order in by 08:02, with a confirmation email sent to me stating 24/4 - 8/5 however this email literally vanished from my inbox and was replaced with an email stating 4 - 6 weeks / 12th - 26th May. But not before I had screenshot the previous email!
I called customer services who were of no help and then decided to email CEO, call me what you want, I know its embarrassing haha! I honestly didn't want a response from Tim, just someone higher up to take a look at my case, sure enough the next day a very nice man from the executive sales department contacted me and said that he'd attempt to sort the problem. I wouldn't mind waiting 4 - 6 weeks, however I'm going away to Malaysia during May for a month to do some charity work so will have no way of accepting my order if it comes in 4-6 weeks. Whether they can change my delivery address to Malaysia or can expedite my delivery remains to be unknown, however I'd prefer the first option as being expedited simply isn't fair on everyone else, plus I want to stay part of the 4 - 6 week thread because everyone on here is way more awesome!
I'll be sure to keep everyone in the loop on what happens, hopefully people posting gets even more frequent on here because I just keep swapping between this thread and my order page and refreshing!

You are the only one that I have seen then. Everyone else with SG 42mm sport model seem to be on the 4 week window. Very odd.

Very often someone will reply back, not Tim but someone higher up. Keep us posted.
I got my order confirmation at 12:02 PST for my SG 42mm sport and have the 4/24/-5/8 window. My brother got the same watch at 12:06 PST and he has the 4 week window.
It just sold out ridiculously fast.

where did you order 42 inch watch from?
Ordered it from the UK! Ordered it during the first minute of preorders as they went on sale at 08:01 in the UK
Went to the Apple store today to visit my watch. Another 4-6er here. Still happy with my choice (42 with Classic Black). It is nice to be able to see it and at least confirm that I am happy with my choice. I am pretty sure I will order a Milanese Loop, however. The ability to adjust it so fast and with essentially infinite sizing options is pretty nice.
A lot of people are doubting you,can you post a screenshot? I for one am not doubting you though. My 42mm SS with classic leather buckle has a 4/24-5/08 ship date. But the second watch I ordered at 12:02am PST (38mm SS with modern buckle) has the OP's shipping date
----------
4-6 on the 42MM SS with classic leather buckle? What time did you order?
I ordered the 42mm Space Gray online as soon as it became live 3:09am EST with same delivery date as above... I would have ordered through the Apple App Store app but they don't take gift cards through the app...

i was more like emphasizing the fact that you said "INCH" lol
42mm Sport Space Gray w/black band ordered at 3:17am (launch+17min) EDT got the 4-6 week ship time response (May 13-27).
