My delivery is supposed to be tomorrow the 12th, however I just checked the UPS tracking (9pm PT 4/11/15 ship to Los Angeles) and the watch hasn't even been picked up by UPS yet! Stuck on the "Order processed, ready for UPS."

Read th FAQ post a few back. Means nothing. Tomorrow is still real.
 
There is a flight that goes from Anchorage to Ontario.. but it did not land yet today so I have no idea why people would have UPS tracking with an origin scan in Ontario already :confused:

This is it -

I may have an answer to that, but not sure. I looked for something from UPS going to Hawaii and found one:

UPS2964

If I'm reading it's history correctly, that flight came out of Louisville and then went to Ontario, California. It left Louisville at 5:07 EDT and took 3 hr 50 minutes to get to Ontario. About 3 hours later it left Ontario headed to Hawaii. About 5 hr 20 min to get here.

Don't know what flight it took to get to Louisville in the first place or why a watch bound for Hawaii didn't take UPS77 to go straight to California from Anchorage.

Anyway, this led to me a question!

We keep seeing people posting about "X" number of planes landing in Anchorage or Louisville, but others have pointed out that not all of them are from the area of China the Watches would most likely come from.

So does anyone have a list of the specific flight numbers that are leaving Shenzhen so the rest can be ignored?
 
Where are we on the sg 42 sport times?

I too am around the same time as you. xx:15:43. No activity for me as well. I'm beginning to lose patience

UPS77 is the only flight I have seen leaving Shenzhen.

But no one has ever determined with any certainty that this is where the Watches are being assembled either. It is all just speculation.

I'm surfing this thread now to amuse myself a bit but earlier today I went to work. Then I met a friend for lunch. Then we played golf in our golf league. I didn't check in on anything during that time. It was the best part of the day.

Anticipation is a crazy thing that affects your behaviour. My advice is if you want your watch sooner, stop hovering on the web for tiny shreds of info that get you nowhere and get out and enjoy life. The Watch will arrive when it arrives. Posting on a forum or even calling Apple will not accelerate it. Keeping busy and living life will make the time pass faster.

Trust your estimated ship date on the Apple store. No update means no change.
 
I know

I know it isn't the same , but I had the SG 5s on release day and , after tax and trade, I was paid $4 by the retailer to have the 5s on release day. I have no regrets.

I know the Apple watch is a completely different product category. But that doesn't mean my expectations have changed. Through initiative and determination I enjoy procuring a new Apple product of choice on release day. Call me weird.

But I have a terrible feeling inside. As a reasonable person, I understand there are logistics involved. Yet I still have this feeling that's it's been terribly too long since I placed my order. I'm angry and excited at the same time. Angry + excited = not my favorite disposition.

I want good news, yesterday. Help me !
 
My buddy just got charged for his 4/25, 42mm Sport WSB. I'm assuming others will start now as well.

white?

I've never had to wait for an Apple product before.. I always received my orders on launch day. So I am also very frustrated. I ordered the watch over 1 month ago already and I still don't think I will get it for another week or two. I don't know what happened.

Oh. Never mind. I just got a UPS update and you watch is being rdirected to me. :rolleyes:
 
I think charges have either started or have already happened but people are sleeping because they know their time is coming while all of us are later confirmation email times and have no idea when ours might come.

Numbers

Everytime I see these order confirmation times and do the math it puts my delivery in the middle if the May 13-27 window. This is not soon enough. I really hoped for under-promise , over-deliver tactics.

UPS77 is the only flight I have seen leaving Shenzhen.

Yeah, the research I did later seemed to show only UPS77 comes from the suspected factory area, goes to Alaska, and then it continues to California while, I'm guessing part of it's load is moved to other aircraft going to Louisville.

Assuming that part is right, we are left with the question of which flights get stuff off of UPS77. I would suspect that probably only one of those going to Louisville would get them. Just seems to me that it would be more of a hassle to take off of one aircraft and split it up into 5 others rather than one going to Louisville. But even if I'm right about that, there would still be the question of which one.

Still, I think people can probably just watch for UPS77 and assume some hours after it gets into Anchorage, one of the outbound flights to Louisville will have their watch - or it stays on and goes to California.

But since mine seems to have come through Louisville and then out to California to get to Hawaii, maybe all or almost all first go to Louisville and then on to other central locations.
 
Planes

I hear there are 7 planes out tonight. How many planes were out in the day(s) leading to April 24??
