42 MM SS Milanese June Orders

I'm pretty sure it's because there were a bit more orders in the first few days than there have been since then.
I'm more interested in those numbers. Once Apple finally gets these pre-orders caught up, what will the "day to day" sales be like. (Around August/September time frame.)
Not to derail the thread- Still 4/11 order with 6/22-6/29 window here. No changes.
Check this out. The chart in the story excludes the first day orders but you can view it from a link in the story and it's pretty crazy. I thought for sure now that we're on the second day that things would move faster but it just seems like it's moving faster for other bands and not the Milanese. I wonder if the ML is one of the most popular versions? Surprising since most people thought it seemed kinda feminine at first. Once I saw it in more detail and especially in the store I knew it was going to be popular. Anyway, link: https://www.macrumors.com/2015/05/22/apple-watch-orders/
Thanks! I agree... and from just a "consumer" point of view, Milanese seems like it'd be more labor and machine intensive (and time consuming) to manufacture with a million tiny links.
Although I don't know anything about the actual processes.
04/18 order gets Apple Care charged
I ordered the 42 SS ML on 04/18. I am in the USA. My order is still "Processing", with standard delivery 22-29 June.
Today I needed to update my billing information, and a few minutes after doing that my (updated) credit card got charged the cost of the Apple Care.
There is a history of Apple care charges being placed and then retracted by Apple. So, I do not if my specific experience is significative or not of things finally moving up a bit. But there you have it.

Finally registered to forums after spending countless hours looking for updates to this topic...
My 4/11 6:44 PM CST order for 42mm SS ML got into "June 22 - 29" hell couple weeks ago. Just got updated to:
Processing Items Available to ship: 4-6 business days
Delivers: 04 Jun, 2015 - 08 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping
Chicago, US.
Guess I'm happy, here's to getting it next week! (or maybe earlier?)
Was hoping to get it much quicker since my wife's 38mm Sport Blue band was ordered on 4/12 with the same "June" estimate but got actually delivered launch day 4/24. If it wasn't for it I would be happy with early June delivery for my watch. It's just overdelivering so hard on my wife's order set mine expectations too high.
Anyway, the wait is close to being over for us!

AC+ charge means nothing. It showed up for me few weeks ago and went away. And it showed up (and went away few days later) after I had to change expiration date on my payment method after calling Apple to have it changed.
But see my previous post, seems there is some movement on 4/11 and 4/12 orders.
Mine got moved up too but why is yours that much sooner than me with a day earlier shipment!!??
I have no idea, when everyone else was 6/22-29 I was 6/19-26. I see no reason for me earlier other than maybe it is has to do with where I live
I am hereby designating this thread as being on "High Alert."
All 42MM SS ML orders delivering by 6/8 should be reported here with status updates no later than 1 hour after your latest update. All orders delivering by 6/8 should be checked at least once per hour until delivery occurs.
Yes I'm a psycho. But I also want to know how close I am to receiving my Watch =D

I heard that if you reroute it through Apple it can delay it a day or two.
