Update:
I ordered two watches on the same order. A 38mm sports with pink band, which was delivered yesterday, but the 42mm sgs with bsb is still showing 5/6 weeks away

On the up side of things from looking at a few other forums it's looking like Apple is mostly through shipping the first hour of U.S. preorders, which means they got through roughly 40 minutes of 42 mm Space Grey preorders yesterday alone. On the down side they're still only through the first hour. I hope the shipping pace really starts to pick up now that we're past the initial rush of preorders.
Also, has anyone ordered any Monowear Bands for their watches? I just got notification that the two bands I ordered on May 13th have been delayed until the middle of June.

Just received my 38mm sg bsb yesterday, Austin tx, waiting on my 42 sg bsb ordered the same day 4/26. Said 6/22-6/29 but was bumped to 6/19/-6/26 last week. Hoping this estimate is way over and it'll happen in the next couple weeks.
Has anyone else seen this kind of change? I ordered Apr 24th and still am on Jun 22-29.
I haven't seen a change either and I ordered the morning of the 11th. I take this as a good sign however that if orders placed for the same act model in the same country weeks after are getting updates on shipping that surely means the 6/22-6/29 shipping date is conservative.
Take a look at this article:
http://qz.com/410027/apple-watch-or...havent-grown-since-a-shopping-data-firm-says/
Article details projected Watch sales by day since pre-order availability. Projected sales for April 10 (day 1) is about 1.4 million watches. The total projected sales from April 11 through April 22, the day I ordered my SG Watch, is only another 250,000 Watches. So, things will begin to fly once we get through the April 10 orders.

Also...just out of sheer curiosity I went and started a fake order for a 42mm SG BSB and the estimated shipping currently is 4-6 weeks while mine and many many others of this exact model which were ordered months ago (crazy to say haha) have 5-6 week ship times. No way that'll stand to be correct. Unless Apple is planning to stockpile and send hundreds of thousands of watches out over 7 days which doesn't seem to be the case!
I was in the June 23 to July 8 range then bumped up to June 22 to July 7 after changing my shipping address.
42mm SG BSB
Ordered May 7
that's 4-6 weeks from today v. 5-6 weeks from whenever you ordered so it's not the same thing
Going even by launch date, that puts it around the first week of June or so. Apple has to be stockpiling watches if they're still behind on even fulfilling preorders (like mine). I'm at day 42 since I've ordered.
No no mine says currently 5-6 weeks i.e. June 22-29 which is more now like 4-5 since to updated to that last week

LOL!!! The unconscious mind works in strange ways! Hey take it as a good thing...you must be in a good place in life that your subconscious latches on to that and not some other greater worry! Ok sorry for the Freud talk...back to watches! :-x
Are you in the U.S.?
My 42mm SGBSB April 11th @ 10:14MST is still showing the June 22-29 window despite being a month a head of your order so maybe we'll start getting some shipping date changes.
I was wondering about that too! I really hope that means better news for us who pre-ordered early. Kinda wish Apple would update the shipping time frame just to at least avoid making pre-orders look pointless (since you can get almost same shipping estimates by ordering today).
Again, I assume you're correct though unless they have a weird stockpile of watchs building up. Would be even worse if they show up at the store first after the months of waiting.
same thing happened to me, but once the 38mm shipped (two weeks ago) the 42mm SG went back to "June" shipping (later updated to the current 22-29 Jun)

I hope they're not stupid enough to stock stores full of watches and disregard the preorders..completely defeats the purpose of preordering.
Side note: if they're stockpiling watches, wouldn't that just be a HUGE over saturation of watches? Maybe the first few waves of fulfillment were the guinea pigs to set future standards for production?
Either way, 42 days later I'm still Apple Watch-less and not happy.
Yes I am. But I check a chinese website all the time. They get watches much faster then us.
Wow, I ordered on 4/16, and my window is 6/22-6/29. Not a bad window for you after ordering over a month later than I did!
