That's what I'm thinking. They'll get there when they get here.
I'll just keep checking back now and then to watch some of these folks live and die by this thread. Way more interesting than TV for sure. Lol
yes its 2:12:45 your time, they did same for me but i was able to correct him reason they see it like this 00:14:45, so they ignore the zeros n go with the second set n say its hour n mins went its mins n secs, trust me its stamp at 2:12:45 for you
Incheon is in South Korea. I'd imagine the watches are on planes out of Shenzhen, China. I haven't heard of Apple using any manufacturers in S Korea, but I haven't been following supply chain/manufacturing news very closely.
Incheon is in South Korea. Was just there a few weeks ago.
thanks, so its Shenzhen then, i think, but i do see some flying to Louisville getting there about midnight cst
Mine is sitting at the UPS depot waiting for me.
Mines apparently taking a tour around my area. Hoping to have it at my door really soon.
Sigh.

This is the link.
UPS flies virtually every day somewhere.
Not all planes are carrying Apple products. Many may have none.
Alaska is the first hub on the trip from Asia. Flights arrive from many places.
From Alaska things are re-sorted and sent to eith Ontario (California) or Louisville. From those point they are again redisteibuted to their next destination.
Flights go from Alaska to Louisville every night. It does not mean that Watches are delivered to Louisville everyday.
From the way we've seen bursts it seems mor like 2 - 3 times per week there is a short flurry.

Ok, that makes sense now.
Canada is like, way ahead of the US in order times for some reason.
...its all that syrup...and that brown gravy on your french fries...poutine, right?
I ordered my space grey on April 10 at 3:20 am and it still says order processing. I live in Florida and paid with gift card, can someone explain why people who ordered it after me are receiving it earlier.
Shenzhen is UPS' international hub for China. Those planes could contain anything, but hopefully atleast some of the cargo is watches
Also, UPS only flies 6 days a week between China and the U.S. so whatever day they do not operate probably explains the slow days of little to no charges/status changes.
Oh, I know they don't just contain watches - even when they have them, the watches could just be a small fraction. I'm just thinking of whether an specific flight matters at all. You do add another piece of info. Reports I've seen here were about Shenzhen being near the factory, but you say it the UPS hub. That would still tend to mean watches would go there first, I think.
We had someone on one of these threads who kept posting about his twitter account where he would provide info because he had contacts at the Louisville airport UPS workers. Said they could tell him whether a flight had watches. If so, he should have been able to tell which flight numbers ever had them, but I never saw anything when I looked at the webpage.
We're just touching 3:10am orders... still ten more minutes to get to 3:20. If anyone is getting a watch before you it isn't a space grey sport.
You live in Florida, huh?
Edit: Lol, maybe I should have read a few posts above this. I just clicked on the picture without reading the other posts. I saw our prices were the exact same.
