Like I said above, I think we get up to AT LEAST XX:08 orders by this Friday. Starting Monday, we should start seeing the number of "seconds" of orders start to double. Apple will probably start clearing a whole minute of orders by Tuesday, with each day beginning to earn an additional 2 minutes per day.

For example:
Monday - XX:08-XX:09
Tuesday - XX:09-XX:10
Wednesday - XX:10-XX:12
Thursday - XX:12-XX:16
Friday - XX:16-22

Monday - XX:22-XX:30
Tuesday - XX:30-XX:40
Wednesday - XX:40-XX:52
etc...

Of course, this is all a complete rough estimate...but I definitely think as the amount of preorders made at specific times decreases, you will definitely see a pickup in the range of times that are covered each day. Even by cutting my estimate in half, and only adding an additional minute per day, you'd still end up with Apple serving out orders a week ahead of the current shipping schedule.

It's not even a rough estimate. It's a wild guess. For all we know orders for SG heated up large from 7-10 min. Most prople who bought Watches are not on this forum and Apple has not told anyone how many were ordered per minute.

It's wild speculations like this that get people here angry and upset that Apple is not shipping their own watch fast enough.

One... versus the 6-7 that were coming across every day last week. Not sure what that means for us exactly.

It means UPS does not have enoigh freight demand on a Monday to need 7 planes flying halfway around the world. China had a holiday this weekend. Not much surprise if there is less things to ship.
 
Order received X:06:19

Planes coming in soon. Better have my watch!! Checked with apple support to see exactly when my order was received. They said at 10:00AM. I about flipped. Ha. Luckily it was just a mistake. They probably just like to mess with people like me that stalk them all day. Ha. I probably would too!

Hope to see some action tonight. Charge my CC at the very least! Here's to hoping.

Good to see my home town represent. I'm about 30 seconds behind you, going to my office in the city, though.

We're still working on xx:06 orders?

xx:09 still waiting... I am running an 8k this Saturday and was really hoping to have it for the race. Oh well, there will be others.

Another xx:09er here, we're in this together! The wait/excitement/anticipation is killing me
 
I spy 3 UPS Birds coming in from Alaska!

And they're headed for the hub! Hopefully those are nice and full of shinny new :apple: Watches for all of us!

But if not at least mine :p

Nothing on tracking, but it's supposed to be in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow! XX:06:05

I would guess by the end of next week you'll get charged, maybe sooner. In 11 days they've gone through ~ 6 1/2 minutes worth of orders (so in theory they COULD go through another 6 1/2 in the next 11 days). If you take a look at the google doc that was getting updated for a while there was definitely a majority of folks reporting being in the 7 minutes and under group (majority being >50% :)). So I also believe it will start speeding up, but the baseline could be set by what they've already done.

Where do you see this Google doc?

I check 100 times a day lol

I secretly hope one of the times I check back I see that 1000 planes have taken off and it spells out "THE WATCH IS HERE" on the flight tracker as all of our cards are gloriously charged at once

That's entirely possible. I saw reports from many people who weren't even able to get into the Apple Store website until about 7 minutes in. Once they did, I'm sure the flood picked up steam.
 
Thought I'd just fill you in on my details, I get mine tomorrow!

Yeah, I got in and ordered about 6 or 7 minutes in, and my order time is 15 minutes passed the hour
