I just called Apple with an apple store account issue, so I figured I might as well ask about the watch and the shipping date. The representative said that based on my order time and where apple is right now, she believes my watch will ship on the 13th.
I doubt it, I think she was just trying to make a customer happy on the phone but I figured I would share the info. I'm guessing next week is the best case scenario for my order time.
 
Just got off a web chat with an apple representative, and I'd like to say the help was very good and very fast. I have found that my watch order was almost exact to what my email says only showing that my order was a few milliseconds earlier than the email said.

My SGS 42mm watch shows xx:17:01
Shipped: No
Charged: No
Portland, OR

and my brothers showing xx:14:43
Shipped: No
Charged: No
Portland, OR

Luckily he is on a juniors abroad trip in europe for another 3 weeks and has let me take his watch as it will probably ship sooner than mine. Hoping for xx:14 shipments by monday if not sooner!

Yeah, they have no idea. All she's really saying is that she has no reason to believe that your Watch won't arrive after your estimated delivery window.
 
Does anybody know which watch is in the least demand ie, I will get the soonest. I ordered the 42mm SG for my boyfriend's birthday but now I just want to order one for myself already because I know I will definitely want one as soon as his comes and I don't want to wait another 6 weeks :confused:

I was thinking 38 mm white or pink sport band?

38mm white ship within 2 days from what I've heard. Delivery within a week (even though the estimates say otherwise).

NOTE: this is based on US information, not sure about UK, Canada, etc.

SS are the ones that are shipping out quicker now a days. The only ones that are receiving sports in a few days are devs or have dev accounts. I placed orders for the white, blue and green straps after ppl reported of short delivery times. The orders i placed i've had to wait 2 weeks.
 
Take a bike ride to Rainbow Drive Inn and please let me know the results. Then partake in a loco moco for me.

Or if on the North Shore, ride to Giovanni's, report the results and get a spicy shrimp plate.

Side note...I almost got hit in the head by a falling coconut eating shave ice from Matsumoto's!

Actually, though it is quite popular, I've never eaten at Rainbow Drive In. But then, I'm not big on loco moco and other local cuisine!

I go to the North Shore a couple times a week. Never been to Giovanni's, but I almost always go to Matsumato's. I prefer the Rainbow shave ice with ice cream and condensed milk - tried it with beans once. Not my thing!

They have fixed up the area around Matsumoto's. Looks good and more parking which was sorely needed!

I wonder if the pink will be even faster than the white?

Even those are 3-5 weeks out right now
 
I have really enjoyed reading through all 200-some pages of this discussion. If nothing else I have learned a bit more about how UPS works.

I figured I would throw my time and date in there. Any movement will be reported:

SG 42mm BSB
Order received at Apple: XX:12:01
E-Mail confirmation time: XX:12:06
Expected Delivery: 13-27 May
Card Charged: No
Location: Northern Virginia (Washington, DC area)

If you do see a shipping notification by tonight you will probably see it tomorrow. Thats how it has historically been going, charged overnight, shipping notification in the evening, delivery next day. Keep your eyes peeled for that status change!
 
Charged yesterday night , shipped now. yahhh
