This thread has slowed quite a bit lately. Hopefully it's because many in here have gotten their watches. To those of you still waiting, I've had my watch for two days, and I can say that it's worth the wait. Might as well enjoy the weekend, as your watch probably won't see much movement tonight or tomorrow.
 
Mines not due until 12th-26th :( order email received at :10 so I think I've got a little wait yet
 
I am XX:10:47 and I'm in the first group.

I just updated my address to my Chicago drone, from NC as I'm there all week. Hopefully no issues with the CC

Also, no authorizations or preparing notifications.
 
Is :10-:11 the 42 ML cut off point for the first batch? I don't think I've seen any :11 expecting shipments in this first batch.
 
My confirm time is xx:10:13 and I'm in the 4/24-5/8 delivery group with still no activity. Hoping to see a status change come Monday. We should all have our watches by Friday unless Apple decides to screw us with another EOD late next week.
 
I can no longer edit shipping info or cancel my order which means my watch is preparing to prepare to ship— in other words, it's too late to change anything because it's moving towards shipping. My watch is a Milanese, 42MM. Order time = XX.10. on the dot.

Glad to hear it. With the erratic shipments in this launch, this place was starting to feel like a cargo cult. #
 
Finally got charged! Now I'm just waiting for my order status to change. 4/10 2:08AM CST

Edit: Preparing for Shipment.

Great news for you! Hopefully you'll have yours by Monday!

I'm still in processing hell. Hoping to have a change in status tomorrow but I'm doubtful I'll see any movement.

Thank you, I hope you'll see some movement in the next few days. It sucks waiting!

Just charged 2:38am only after checking my order status and saw a message in red stating my payment option needed updating.

Clicked update now, it was ordered using Apple Pay and my PNC Bank Visa showing my device ID of the card on my iPhone which was authorized by me with my bank. On top of that I also checked last week with an Apple CS rep to verify my payment options were all correct and up to date as well contacted my bank and explicitly told them to allow any Apple charge via that card, the funds weren't an issue, however I saw on these forums others using PNC Bank and having charges denied.

Option 1 was to re-authorize the payment card, which I tried and it said failed.

Option 2 was enter another card, I used auto fill from safari on iPad to fill the card number stored in my keychain and it is the very same number used in my Apple Pay order, it successfully authorized the payment and I received an immediate email notification from my bank (I have this set with my bank) telling me the amount charged on my card with the recent Apple purchase.

Freaking banks, gotta love em, but they will get an earful from me on Monday.
As far as Apple is concerned, OMG wtf is up with Apple Pay not working as it should? I have no problems with using Apple Pay with various retail establishments around me or online purchases, other than this Apple Watch fiasco.

Edit: My order was 4-10-15 xx:08 EDT 4/24 - 5/8 shipping PA charged as I said but not showing PFS, still shows processing.

Happy for all of you.
Got mine on Thursday, totally worth the wait!
The Milanese is BY far my favorite band available.
It's comfortable, gorgeous, and the magnet on it is super strong.
You're all going to love it!
 
thats cool you guys got your watches i'm trying the best to keep positive this week will end this horrible torture if not apple has some explaining to do!!!
 
I'm glad to finally see some movement and congrats to those who finally switched to Preparing!

It still seems a long way out for us xx:10ers since the only movement has been in the xx:08 group. Looks like a 5/8 delivery for us if they can even live up to their last guaranteed delivery date in our range. I better not receive another EOD late this week. Heads will roll!
 
Anyone know the turnaround rate from when preparing for shipment switches to shipped? Should I expect it (EDIT: shipment notification) later today (Sunday) or nothing will be shipped until Monday morning with arrival Tuesday?
