42mm Space Grey May 13 - 27

Not sure why it is a problem with Etiquette asking a question. If you choose not to answer don't. I kinda of thought this forum was here for people to compare notes and share experience while waiting impatiently for their watches to ship and arrive. Kind of a support group. Pretty sure Help yourself you damn drunk is not heard often at an AA support group. Just MHO anyway. Hope everyone gets their watch soon and falls completely in love with it.
 
Order time

As far as I can tell my order time is xx:15:02

Unless things pick up dramatically I'll be lucky to see this by the 27th
 
I don't understand how people are on the spreadsheet for this model and this delivery timeframe with orders confirmed after xx:22:xx. Mine is delivery 5/29-6/11. Are we just combining the two now that we are getting closer?

And I'm unable to add to the sheet so could someone please add me? Thanks!

42mm SG BSB
Confirm:xx:22:08
Still processing
Delivery: 5/29-6/11

I dunno...I know things have been a little slow last night/today, but I really have faith that orders through XX:15 will ship by Friday, as long as no production issues arise.
 
Mistake

I also made the horrible mistake of trying to order through the webpage. I was using my iPad Air and I hit the Apple Store shortcut through the browser foolishly thinking I was opening the app.... It was 3 am here.

Oh well

in most case It varies by like about 4 secs earlier, so apple could have u stamp at xx:14:58, and about it being after can happen to so that's why also suggest chatting with a rep to get exact time?
I was also insulted with martycan before that he didn't have to much time in his to do that, but each his own to find out the time? but apperntly he has time to be rude here.

any more inside info on this?
 
Good news

Ok contacted Apple via chat. David tells me my true order time is :

xx:14:52

So even sooner then I thought !!!!

Still no watch :/
 
Apple watch is shipping via UPS Express Saver. On their website it says UPS will deliver before 12pm. Normally UPS truck comes to my area around 5-5:30pm. Will they come earlier just to deliver my watch? I don't want to go through hassle of Hold for pickup if I can get the watch by 12pm. Anyone have any experience with UPS coming earlier than normal?

Nothing more, honestly.

My contact doesn't work for Apple...but he is indirectly related to part of the production process. That's why he can give me little hints here and there, but nothing is ever 100% guaranteed. Let's put it this way, when certain things cross his desk, he knows that they are at a certain point in their journey, and he knows roughly how much longer they have to go, which is why he can be "close" with his knowledge, but not usually exact. That's about as much info as I can divulge.

Anyway, I'm a little confused as to why we are experiencing these "gaps" of days without charges hitting, UNLESS, last nights planes were full of the Watch configurations that had to be sent to meet their shipping estimates...that's the only thing I could think of that would cause that.

However, I still feel pretty good about us getting at least to (or through) XX:15 orders this week. I just have a gut feeling about it.

As far as it is known, UPS isn't delivering earlier just because of the watch. They should still deliver to residential addresses at their normal time.

My wife's watch came to my office at the same time UPS normally delivers...no earlier, no later.

or Apple wasn't ready when launch date hit and didn't make enough watches and now there behind on everything and are trying to catch up I really doubt that there will be Apple watches in stores in June or July because orders are back up till then and Apple is still shipping may 13-27th in the xx:10 min mark and I'm in that mark with 22 seconds and I still haven't been charged so that's probably why it's been slow . Apple messed this launch from the get go!

also what part of china is where the expected ups planes suppose to fly off?Shenzhen or Incheon? or other?
or who ever can answer this question, no smart remarks please
 
Facebook friend of mine just got his today. 42 SG in NYC.
10:31 here in Nyc, still processing.

I'm guessing there may be a slowdown due to the metal links and leather loops finally starting to ship.
 
My moment has finally arrived!! Can't wait to get home!!! Now all I have to do is persuade my wife to take me back.

I called to try and add apple care and for giggles, I asked her what time I ordered and she told me 14:45. Then she said that must be 2:45 in the morning (which could make sense, I'm in CST and I ordered the watch at 2:14am local time, 12:14am California time) My email from Apple when I ordered is XX:14:41

Who the hell knows. I'm guessing it'll be another week or two before both of them get here. Oh, FYI, she wouldn't let me add Apple care until it ships. I'll have to call back and add it.
