Guys it's been said multiple times here that the apple reps are reading the time stamps wrong. Your order actually went in 4 minutes 58 seconds after ordering started. That's why you got the email a second later.

So sorry. I'm not following the thread every minute on the minute. I have a life outside this. I come on here some times to read some posts and comment. So those multiple times ur talking about, I didn't read those.
 
So I'm staying strong for that same mindset to receive my watch mid upcoming week, even though I have a mid May delivery date

I hope you are strong enough not to complain or be disappointed if it doesn't show up 3 weeks early and you get you watch as "late" as May 10th.

Of course I'm gonna stay positive for it to come earlier than the date expected. Who wouldn't. I've seen people in June say they hope for it next week too. I never said I would complain or be disappointed . I have a May 13-27 delivery date. I am an adult and understand that concept. But of course I can be excited if it comes earlier. I hope that's not a problem for you.

No one has time to read 20 previous pages of posts. I'm with you, excited and hopeful to receive it earlier than the 13-27 window but if that doesn't happen, oh well. First world problems, right?

I think Apple may have been a little hesitant in production and unsure about the demand. Of course there are the kool aid drinkers, like myself, that order all the new products but there was a ton of speculation that it would flop. I'd be willing to bet the surge of orders had exceeded their expectations. The good news is that Foxconn has been through this many times before and they're great at ramping up production to meet the demand. Plus, now they know the most desired models and can shift production to match the demand. I'm sure the speed at which they are being produced will increase as well.

just got off the phone with the apple management rep who sees multiple time stamps on my order. He says it goes through multiple stages of "processing" however if my original quoted time of XX:04:54 is right and this movement of 05's are happening I should find out fairly soon where I stand!!!
 
My buddy just got charged and status changed preparing for shipment. This happened moments ago. His confirmation time was 3:04AM. Lucky SOB!
 
Been lurking in this thread, and wanted to update you fine folks:

42mm SG
12:05:23
NC

just got charged this AM. No shipment notification yet
 
Is there any sort of estimate on when we'll see them based on the charge and preparing? I'm thinking Wednesday.
 
Charged and Preparing for Shipment at 12:10 and 12:20, respectively.

Is there any sort of estimate on when we'll see them based on the charge and preparing? I'm thinking Wednesday.

I think it's too early to tell at this point. I'm not in UPS's database yet, so it just depends on what stage the package is in now. Could see delivery late tomorrow if you are close to the hub.

Had to enter new billing / Old card was still on file.
Status: Preparing for Shipment 5 minutes later

Well I kept looking at my bank account to see if any charges posted but I didn't see anything so I finally checked the order status on the app and it said problem with payment. Never got an email saying billing was incorrect either smh.

After I checked the order status page I noticed my old card was still there AFTER I CONTACTED APPLE AND HAD THEM SWITCH IT OUT! Come on apple get it together!

....Anyway I'm just happy its finally shipping.
