Figured to keep things consistent, I'd start a thread for shipping times (when they start) for the Space Grey Sport 42mm. Looks like most of us that have ordered SGS on or around 4/11-4/28 have had our times switched already.

I'm in this group as well... I ordered another one for a friend of mine too. But, it's the 38mm SGS. She's supposedly getting hers next week (5/21-6/4. So, I'm contemplating just cancelling both of our orders.

I actually was hoping the order would be here early June, but I'd just wait until I'm able to get both in stores... however long that would be. They have tons of commercials with the NBA Playoffs going on, yet the watch is technically not available.

So, I bow out... no more checking the Apple Watch forum. Good luck to this group.

Yep...ordered a Space Grey BSB on the morning of the 11th and today got a shipping update of June 22-29.

I was surprised I thought for sure they'd shoot to deliver at the 2 month window (June 10-15). Sort of disappointed but at least we have estimates now and can just forget about it till next month.

Still...10/11 weeks post pre-order is pretty sad haha. Not sure if I would call that a pre-order anymore but in any case we have a date. First update since I ordered over a month ago! So, that's something!

Seems like lately they've been about a week early-ish so who knows maybe it will be mid June.
 
Thanks for starting this thread. I posted this in the other thread but still wondering:

Has anyone seen order times with shipping windows in early June (between May 27 and June 22) for this model?
 
Ordered April 29th, was June delivery, just changed to:

Available to ship: 5-6 weeks
Delivers: 22 Jun, 2015 - 29 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping
 
The fact that someone who ordered on the 11th has the same shipping time as someone that ordered on the 28th is a bit absurd. So I would like to think this was just a response to all of the complaints about not having any updates from Apple.

I would imagine that the 11 April orders will likely start shipping at the beginning of June and progress from there.

Any thoughts?

I'm thinking this is a 'under promise/over deliver' scenario from Apple for late 10th, Early 11th and 12th orders. I have a hard time believing orders placed within a day or two of release will be filled the same time orders placed weeks after. Just my two cents.

Best thing to do in order to avoid disappoint is start expecting updates around the 20th of June. Anything other than that is now a 'over deliver'; which again is what I think Apple is aiming for. They really needed to at the very least get customers estimates on when to expect their product.

Yes, I agree and I am definitely (lol) hoping you are correct. I ordered on the April 12th. I cannot believe that it will take until June 21st to get all the pre-orders on April 10th delivered. Just my thoughts.

for what it's worth, I pre-ordered the 38mm Space Gray at xx:04:53 am on 4/10 and immediately got the 5/13-5/27 window. Well, the watch arrived on 4/29, well ahead of the posted window. So I'd imagine that maybe the early pre-orderers might get theirs ahead of this window. Just a thought. But at this pace, it may very well be the 6/22-29 window.

I'll jump in with my stats

42 SG Sport BSB
email confirmation: 3:10:53 PM (CDT) 4/12
Processing
Delivers: 6/22-6/29
 
Ordered 42mm Space Grey BSB on April 11th at 10:14AM MST from Denver (after realizing I mistakenly ordered a 38mm 6 minutes after preorders began, seriously mad at myself for that one since I'd have my watch by now if I hadn't messed up). My shipping window was "updated" to June 22-29 today.

I seriously hope the reports I'm seeing that production is speeding up are accurate and Apple gets a lot quicker at getting these watches out to their eager but impatient customers cause I'm definitely one of them.
 
42mm SG Sport

Order Date: April 12th
Original: June

Updated:
Available to ship: 5-6 weeks
Delivers: June 22 - 29

... I hope there is more improvement. This wait has taken a lot of the excitement away from me. Everyday I consider cancelling and waiting for the 2nd Gen out of frustration. It wouldn't be so bad if the other models weren't shipping sooo much faster. Co-worker ordered a 38mm White Sport on April 24th and got his yesterday. I am an original apple fan boy, but this wait has tested me to the core lol
 
I appear to be in this boat with you all as well.

42mm SGS BSB
Ordered: 4/30/2015 15:19 CST
Delivers: 22 Jun, 2015 - 29 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping

I'm hoping for the June 22 part of that window. lol (of course)

Are many people ordering the longer charging cable?

Check what yours is shipping with but I'm 99.9% certain that all models are shipping with the longer 2m charging cable. Unless there's an even longer one I'm unaware of.
 
Same here, as posted in another thread.

Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band
Available to ship: 5-6 weeks
Delivers: 22/06/2015 - 29/06/2015 by Standard Shipping

Ordered on 17 Apr 2015 at 9am Hong Kong Time.
 
Ordered mine on 4/25 and woke up this morning to a "Available to ship: 5-6 weeks - Delivers: 22 Jun, 2015 - 29 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping". I am glad to see a date range instead of June.

I looked it up and you are correct. The 2m comes with the watch. I saw they had a 1m and 2m available as an accessory and just naturally assumed only the 1m was provided to make you pay more for a longer one. Lol
 
Hope...

I ordered 2 Watches on April 27th, and I hope there's a pattern.

The first one, a SS38 WSB, said May 29-June 11th originally, but delivered May 8th. Some 20 days ahead.

Now that a lot of space gray sports 42s have gone to June 22-29 (including mine), if the pattern repeats we should see these early June. And considering the recent news of ramped production, who knows...
 
So... almost everyone who ordered between Apr 11-30 got un updated shipping estimate of 5-6 weeks in the last couple of days

Today I went to the Apple online store and noticed that the current shipping estimate for a new order of 42 SG is 6-7 weeks...

I don't suppose it makes much sense that someone who ordered five weeks ago will get their watch at the same time with someone who orders today, which makes me even more optimistic that we will get our watches before Jun 22-29
