Haha. I was being sarcastic. Someone was down my throat yesterday saying Apple will get to 3:15 that night, and I said noooo way! I expected no charges based off the pattern. My guess is 12s will finish tonight, with 13-15 finished by Sunday.

:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( Was so hoping :apple: would renew my faith in them. My joy was being fueled by all the waves and people receiving their watches. No wave no joy!!

Wahoo joy back. Congrats
 
Ok I was going over a copy of the Google doc that was not refreshed on my iPad and I have renewed hope people who were charged early enough in the day got their watches next day. I'm hoping a big 10am-2pm wave will hit y'all.

Yeah guess you're right. Shows how short-sighted and anxious I am I guess lol :p . Really hoping for some big pushes in the supply chain this next 48 hours and I would imagine there will be.

you're getting dangerously close btw...I am at xx:22 so not tooooo far behind ya.
 
First let me begin by yes I WANT my watch now, but when I placed my order I knew what the ship times were and I accepted them and while I would like to have seen my watch ship I know Apple has some time in the shipping window so me complaining will not get it here faster.

This is just an observation based on the information contained in this thread. First an Apple employee stated that Apple agreed to ship our Watches 4 - 6 weeks from 04/10 well week 4 was 05/08 and week 6 will be 05/22 so we are about 1/2 way through our shipping window.

Looking at this from a simple numbers point of view the best I can figure is this shipping window extended to the XX:20 minute mark and we have people confirming their orders of XX:12 have been charged and have shipped, this gives Apple only 8 days to get 8 or so minutes of pre-orders shipped, while I optimistic that they will make it mathematically it does not seem possible based shipments since 04/24. Here is my thought process they have been shipping an average of 36 seconds of orders per day of 42 MM SG BSB, taking this average into consideration they would shipping orders in the XX:17:45 mark by 05/22 which does not allow them to meet the shipping window and potentially could turn into a publicity nightmare being Apple could not deliver on promises made to customers.

Now MY opinion is that we are going to see a spike in charges and deliveries, when I have no idea but I think it is coming because they need to double the average amount of shipments to meet the shipping window they provided.

Good job bro. You speak the truth.
 
Have there been any Saturday deliveries? I'm going away for the week on Sunday and at this point I don't think it's possible for me to get my watch on Friday. Debating whether to change my shipping address to the hotel
 
I can't believe this day has come.
Out for delivery!
Order time xx:11:58

This has been a great place to keep up and gather information. Hope everyone left receives their watch soon!

With more and more people reporting their delivery windows are getting pushed out (mine 2 days - a friend of mine a week) there won't be any late deliveries as Apple can adjust those dates (which were never a promise) as it pleases.

The real nightmare is when I still wait for my delivery but walk into the store across my work and buy one on day 1 of store avaibility. Why pre order?

Nope. Only weekday deliveries, I believe.

It is only supposed to be weekdays, but when my 38 mm got here they tried to, I believe accidentally, deliver it on Saturday.

I think one thing to keep in mind is that possibility that the rate of orders per minute will drop over time. So from launch minute to +10 might be double or even more than +11 to +20 minutes. This would allow them to fill a greater range of orders over time while still making the same number of watches. I think most of you will have your watches by the end of next week.

I ordered on the 21st and still have the generic "June" shipping date. I follow these threads purely for entertainment value lol! Hope you guys all get shipped soon though!
 
Bad Dream

So I was anxiously awoken to check the forums for the pages upon pages of "charged!", "Charged!", "CHARGED!!"....

Instead, I log in and see two pages of crickets and "DAMN IT!"......

My order time was 21 seconds behind the last (US) confirmed time to be charged. I was really hoping to see it hit last night, ship today, receive tomorrow (Friday) to have for the weekend.

Alas.......no.

<insert heartbroken sigh....here>
 
Seems like the big wave is here. 9 flights coming into the states today and its not even friday yet! Which means more tomorrow! lol
