...Part of me is posting this to make sure the thread "still works". It makes me anxious when there is hours and hours of nothing. Particularly after days of zero movement.
No worries, I'm in the similar situation. I ordered on 4/11- no changes yet (6/22-6/29)

Will keep this thread updated if any movement!
 
I wonder if there is a correlation between the lack of watch movement and Tim Cook's confirmation that the watch is sold in stores next month.

Hope you're not right. :(

Unless we get surprise shipping updates, it seems like there's at least a month gap between early AM/mid day 4/10 orders and anyone after that.

I just got an alert from AmEx & my heart leaped for joy until I noticed it was for something else. :(

Waiting.............................

Haha same here! Was for a separate band I ordered. Oh well, at least that is processing fast. :p

*Keeping fingers crossed for watch!*

That is one of the prevailing theories. That they are diverting some of the incoming watches to stock up for the stores...
 
If this is the case, then they are definitely making them available in stores before many of us get our preorders delivered.

Nobody knows for sure. It's just what people are supposing.

At this point they should be through the initial ordering crunch right around midnight and we should start seeing the days start to jump in terms of ordering chronology as long as the production levels stay the same. In theory the bulk of the preorders were probably placed within the first few hours of the site opening and tapered off as time went on.

But we have not seen the shipment days jump for many of the styles. Instead things seem to have slowed.

Perhaps it could be because the fanatics who are more likely to post on the forum are the same people who stayed up to ordered the minute the site opened. And those who waited until later are less concerned about these things and don't post updates here.
 
It's also somewhat bizarre that it still states that the availability is 4-6 weeks, but the front end of my delivery window is 9 days away and the back end is less than three weeks. Are you guys seeing that as well for the 5/29-6/11 window?

Awwww sheeeet. Congrats! Glad to see more movement =)

We draw closer to 4.11 =3

And closer to 4/12 ;)

If any of the analyst predictions are true we should see a ton of days ship at a time coming up in the next few weeks as long as production stays the same. The latest guesswork I read was that a vast majority of pre-orders occurred on 4/10 and tapered off quickly from that. Makes sense to me though I would haver thought interest would have been a little constant as people actually got to try it on in store.

In other news my seperate WSB changed to preparing to ship which is nice I guess. Going to be weird holding on to a box for a month.
 
What a great thing to wake up to! In the middle of the night apple took my money too! Finally, movement!

Now that's it's PFS the question becomes tomorrow or Tuesday delivery (because of the holiday Monday). I have yet to see anyone get Saturday delivery, but I have seen a lot of overnight shipments.
 
Hoping for tomorrow!!! I live in Louisville maybe I'll get sooner :)

Apple ships UPS overnight. Presuming it doesn't hit any snags, and from my personal experience (on my 38mm) it will move to Shipped today, and UPS will get it this evening. Later tonight the tracking numbers will work and it will be planned for delivery tomorrow. If your home when the UPS guy gets there, you will be playing with a new toy over the holiday.

Wish my 42mm was in that state. Wife is taking the 38mm from me on June 4. I will be LOST without this toy.. And I've only been wearing it for two weeks.
 
I'll likely change it to customer pick up as soon as I get a UPS my choice notification just to ensure I don't miss the driver. I can get it at 9am that way too.
