*This information applies to US orders for 42mm SGS orders only.*
I think that date range lasted through orders placed anytime on April 10th for the 42mm SGS, but, I can't confirm. From what I've seen, any orders placed after the 10th immediately got June and did not get changed over to the May 29 - June 11 date range.
Currently, Apple is about a week ahead of the initial date in the estimated shipping range, (Many shipping May 5/6/7 when initial date is May 13). If that holds true, they will clear all April 10 orders by May 22, but based on estimations, I'd say all April 10 orders will ship by May 27. Apple MAY actually beat this, as true shipping/processing times beyond XX:20 are pure speculation. (Or, as many people will say, all of this is pure speculation.)
To estimate anything beyond April 10 orders is tough. But, gun-to-my-head-guess...I'd say 3rd week of June. Apple wants these watches in store by July/August for when people go on vacation to larger cities with larger malls that have Apple stores...when these "farm folks" walk in and play with one, they want them walking out with it too.
It's been a little too quiet on here this morning. Hoping some of my fellow xx:07:xx-ers are seeing charges soon. It would be a nice surprise if I was charged for my xx:07:42 by midnight tonight for Friday delivery.
I'm going to one-up him and assume you get charged on Friday, and have it on Saturday, assuming you're shipping to a residential address.
I have been following this thread for awhile and finally decided to join and post. I'm also in the 5/13-5/27 bracket, received my email confirmation at xx:17:24, I tried to chat with apple today to get my exact order time from them and they could not help me.. This is what she said:
Apple: I do see that your Order came into Apple at 5:20p.m April 10, 2015. This would be the time Apple was able to verify the order by placing an authorization with your bank.
Me: 5:20pm? I remember placing the order around 3 AM eastern time when it first launched
Apple: I do understand. That would be the time that the order was registered and created with Apple. I will not see the actual time the order was placed from your end. I see the time that Apple Verified it as a good order. This is the process for each order that comes into Apple.
Got the watch as a gift for my BF, so hope it arrives by 5/14

It was quiet yesterday morning too until around 11am-noon CST when the forum blew up with charges. Hopefully the same happens today, dont know the status of flights though.

17:20 is 5:20pm. So it's possible the apple rep saw 00:17:20 and discounted the first two zeros.
I'm guessing it means your watch was ordered at xx:17:20. She didn't know how to read the numbers and converted 17 minutes to 17 hours (5 o'clock). 4 seconds between order and email is pretty normal.I have been following this thread for awhile and finally decided to join and post.

Good morning fellow 42 SG friends,
My order was processed at XX:08:02AM on the 10th..
I have a college graduation to go to next Friday (15th) that will probably take up most of the day.. What are the odds that I receive my watch before then? If it delivers that Friday when I'm not home I will be
wow really they in the 00:08 yay! close to 00;11

hey me too congrats neighbor
I actually thought about seeing if it would let me use "X:06" as my monogram but I probably won't go through with it.
I ordered sometime between 4 and 4:15 PST and initially got a June ship date. I actually ordered two, one for my wife, but canceled when I realized it wouldn't be here in time for her birthday. Last week I got an email that says it'll be here between 5/29 and 6/11. I THINK that's the EOD, but I still have no clue what that even is or means.
I sent Cook an email and got a call from someone on his team, but the didn't agree to bump my order up.
So far, no change in my order or CC.
Charged last night and just changed to preparing for shipment.
XX:07:15

Somebody was teasing me today. I opened the Apple Store App on my iPad and my profile showed a notification! Got excited that maybe I was prepping for shipment but no such luck. Never could determine what the notification was for either. No changes to status that I can see and no other pending orders for anything else that might have shipped.
Apple Stores might have them in stock soon.
I might be a little pissed if our stock goes directly to the stores before we receive our pre-order.

That could just mean you can order online and wait in line, with a delivery option for the store... just like it is now, except you can go to the store and get your training in one trip. Might be useful for those who don't live within walking/biking distance of several Apple stores like myself.
