Thank you!

Been watching this thread hoping to see movement towards my watch. I overslept and ordered close to 6:00 AM EST time. I ordered the milanese with the 5/13 timeframe. I also ordered another watch last week. Well like many of you my credit card is on hold for the amount as of a few minutes ago. Status not changed yet but hopefully soon. Thanks for allowing me to be part. I hope everyone enjoys their watches
 
Glad for all of those finally getting shipped.

Would be interesting for you to post what your manufacturing week was and if there are any potential continuing issues with what has been reported from other users.

I have a 16 week build SS 42mm Milanese and so far, so good. Was received last Tuesday, so I understand the anguish of not receiving on day 1.

Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow (5/5) and is week 17.
 
Finally.

Finally...

My order went through at exactly XX:10.00
42 MM SS Milanese Loop.

Holy fu***** s***!!! My card finally got charged too (no decline here though) And I've finally progressed to PFS! I was truly convinced my order was permanently stuck! (I'm pretty sure I have the longest stuck 42 SS Milanese that was still in processing hell, with my xx:04:50!) I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Yea! Congrats!
 
...Yeah, I'd bet we'll all have ours by Wednesday...

Called it!

Glad you didn't get left behind.
 
May the 4th...

Yea! Congrats!

Oh, and Apple Pay charge hit at 21:07 PDT for me, for a 00:09:09 order time. Now Preparing for Shipment as well, though I don't know exactly when that occurred.
 
The Watch is (almost) here

My xx:10 42mm Milanese was charged to my Amex at 8:30pm PDT 5/4/2015. I checked the order status about an hour ago, and it's PFS to Seattle! I hope I'll get it Tuesday, but most likely Wednesday. But I'm glad that it's finally coming. I've been dreaming about the :apple:Watch every night, and I check this thread and the Apple Store page from the moment I get up, until the moment I go to bed. This has been my life for the past two weeks, and it's not healthy. But in a day or two, I'll be checking my :apple:Watch instead from the moment I get up until the moment I go to bed also. Also not healthy, but at least the Watch will remind me ;)

Thanks everyone for the great info. For those that haven't received the watch, hang in there! You'll get yours real soon.

Btw, I too think that xx:10 is the cut off for the 4/24-5/8 batch. Right after I placed my order on 4/10/2015, the ship date slipped. Good luck everyone!

Finally...

Order confirmed at XX:10:18 and credit card was charged at 12:07 PM EST. Now, hope to actually have this waiting for me at my office tomorrow! Sweet! I guess patience is a virtue, but I don't feel very virtuous! Of course, I'm out of town, so watch my flight get delayed (or cancelled!).

Good luck to all that haven't received theirs yet. Will post when I receive it.

42 mm SS Milanese Loop 4/24 - 5/8 batch

My order just switched from "processing items" to "preparing for shipment".
So, we probably will get it by 5/8.:)
 
UK based xx:09:26, no CC charge, still processing for delivery by May 8th. Not hopeful for UK based orders to receive by Friday.

Was it a 42 or a 38, and is it the Milanese that's causing the credit card hold?

The amount of the hold is the sum of my 42mm Milanese ordered on the first day and the 38mm ss wsb ordered last week. The order status did not change though, but hopefully in the next few days.

I'm thinking we'll likely get them on 5/6.
They'll probably ship them out today - 5/5 - for overnight delivery tomorrow.

Though, maybe after this rollercoaster ride of the last few weeks, I'm being a little too overly optimistic.
 
Did anyone that was changed to PFS late last night receive a tracking number? I'm curious what is showing as a delivery day.

My order still shows PFS this morning.

I tried doing the Track By Reference number trick on both UPS and FedEx, but mine did not come up yet.... maybe a little later today. Also tried by phone number, in place of my order number. Didn't work yet either.

Typically, the UPS Reference number is your phone number without dashes.
 
I tried tracking by reference as well for both UPS and FedEx and nothing yet. I think we are a bit premature in checking. I'm just glad my order is finally out of processing hell and one step closer to arriving at my door! Congrats to all those who saw movement overnight and if any are left in the 4/24-5/8 range, may today be yoir day!!!! :)

This is probably the best news out of anybody else on here, me included! So happy for you rlj1010!!! Enjoy yours when it finally arrives! :)
 
So jelly of all you early May window receivers here. Maybe now the later in the month + June orders can start going too ;)
 
Glad to see a lot more people getting ready to receive their watches. I've been really enjoying mine, and I hope that you guys do too.

Thanks for checking back in with us StoneCold X and I'm glad you're enjoying yours as much as you are! It looks like last night was a huge night for us stragglers and some well needed good news! Can't wait to finally have it on my wrist in the next few days!!
