I ordered mine on 4/12 at 5:30pm PDT, just updated to June 19-June 26. Was hoping for late May or early June
Ok yeah, mine just changed to June 22-June 29th as well.

Terrible news, but at least it's "news"

Apple "Care" ???
Brilliant move, Apple. Charge everyone's card around midnight for Apple Care for $69, making everyone think they'll wake up to find their watch shipped in the morning. Instead, everyone get's bumped to the end of June. Apple "Care" seems more like "Apple Doesn't Care"
Something doesn't add up with the numbers. Things were moving along pretty well and it was looking like April 11 orders were just around the corner, and now all of a sudden there is a 5-6 week gap before pretty much anything is going to ship?
Either this is a glitch in the software that updates order status, or there is some sort of new and even worse supply chain or quality control issue causing this development.
Either way, Apple is failing miserably on this one.

Ordered April 12th just changed to that range for me as well, was just 'June' earlier today.
Tell me there's a typo here. You have an earlier ship date than myself and others here but you ordered in the evening the day after me.
I'm not mad at you, but Apple wtf...?
Ordered a black sport band and 42mm Milanese Loop on 04/23. The band has shown a delivery date of 05/26-06/01 for a few weeks now, but today the watch just changed to the same delivery date
It's odd how Apple is choosing to ship these if there really are some people who ordered on 04/10-12'ish that are receiving date ranges of 06/22-29.

Maybe, or perhaps they're deliberately giving an awful shipping window to make us feel better with surprise shipments next week.
People within the 5/27 window were getting their watches two weeks or more ahead of time. I agree that this is entirely odd.
Plus, I'm not cool with being charged even a part of the cost to just not have anything to work with here.

This much doesn't seem to be a big deal, because it seems that the holdup is on the watches themselves, not the bands.
Not a typo, here's a screenshot. I don't understand how Apple is handling this

But then people that ordered it 2 weeks earlier than myself shouldnt be receiving ETA's of late June as opposed to my 05/29-06/01. I would think they would receive theirs first. Just food for thought as to how Apple's software for ETA ranges is working.
My patience has now dropped to an all-time low, considering how much later your order is vs mine.

Exactly. I ordered my 42mm Milanese Loop on 4/14, and you ordered it over a week later, and get your order, before me? That's nutts
I ordered mine on 4/11 at about 4 pm and my delivery time just updated to 6/22-29. I did only get standard shipping though, would that have anything to do with it?
I'm so frustrated I want to cancel my order, but I still want my watch! I don't even know what to do with all this waiting angst...
The Apple rep I spoke to today stated all orders are getting free overnight shipping, which has been the case of all orders that people have reported here in the forums.
I'm going to propose a somewhat unrealistic theory, but it's all I've got.
We are seeing order dates and shipping dates, documented by screen shots which indicate that either Apple is not processing orders in the order they were received, or the order status data is not correct.
Could it be possible that a human was involved in entering some data and mistakenly typed 6/22 - 6/29 when they were supposed to type 5/22 - 5/29?
Honestly, it's really that bad. Does anyone else perceive that something is off by about a month here.
Thanks everyone for your detailed posts including order date, time zone, updates, screen shots, etc...

Wishful thinking, but it makes me feel better temporarily
Glad to make you feel better for a few minutes!
After my ordering fiasco on April 10, I re-ordered on April 11. Shortly after, I bought a Microsoft Band to make myself "feel good". It's really quite functional for $199 although not so attractive looking.
The last few hours have made me really think about cancelling my apple watch order, buying an alcatel and waiting for apple watch 2.0.
Anyone else?
I checked with my credit card company and it seems apple charged my Credit Card its a pending charge right now.
