Does anyone know if the ups plane landing has ever generated email confirmations or credit card authorizations?
Not sure, but nobody in this forum posted any updates for few days now.. Waiting on xx:12's right now.
Two UPS flights into Ontario are already on the ground. My green sport originated from Ontario so its safe to assume my SG sport will be the same.
when ordered 42mm SG BSB
Order time: 4/10 12:15 AM the site (which didn't come up until 12:07 am), said available to ship on launch day. When I received confirmation email, the Delivery Window changed to May 13-May 27.
This is why I am annoyed. I just want the damn watch already. Is that too much to ask?????

You and many other of us. But it is Apple's game.
Hi Everyone, I'm as frustrated as you are waking up to see yet another morning go by without any movement.
One thing that is on my mind is that I hope my unwillingness to be patient doesn't make someone's life more uncomfortable in the production process. We've all heard horror stories about these Chinese companies going to great lengths to meet demand at the expense of people's lives. So I will be more patient no matter how much is killing me.

Quite the opposite. Those Chinese kids took Holidays for their lunar new year. That's the reason we don't have our watches!
Haven't chimed in for a while but at 18:06 I don't see myself with a watch by the 27th....good job Cook...need to take a course in logistics planning
I'm 15:25 and doubt ill have mine by the 27 either smh
big time let down BIG TIME
Just wanted to quote this and come back to it on the 27th. I'm disappointed in the slow launch to, but last I checked it wasn't the 27th yet.
11 more days until we have our Apple Watches. It only took Apple 47 Days / 6 Weeks & 5 Days to get them deliveried to customers who ordered on April 10th.
This is a reminder to stand my ass in line for the iPhone 6S...even if it takes 5 hours or so.

I have a feeling there's going to be a massive wave of shipments this upcoming week. It's the calm before the storm lol
They took something like 3 days off. The "launch" was 3 weeks ago, and we are still under 13 mins into what was the preorder which occurred 5 weeks ago which is something around 7 months since it was shown off during the reveal. So seven+ months to have at least the first day of preorders ready for ship at launch would have seemed enough time to prepare, but maybe they rushed the reveal a bit when it just wasn't there yet.
But alas, the space grey sports aren't the only ones behind. Hell, even some of the ala carte bands are just starting to ship.
I think there was a variety of issues that created this quagmire. I would hate to be on the receiving end of Tim Cook's conference calls the last few weeks. I am sure he's not happy with the launch either. Happy with the passionate fan base and the amount of preorders, as well as orders and interest since launch? Sure. The fact product isn't (or slowly at best) shipping/fulfilling? Nah.
I was hoping to have gotten mine Thursday after seeing Tuesday's wave (I'm xx:12:22 which was less than 25 seconds from last "cutoff"). When I saw I wasn't getting by Friday, I didn't care if I was charged last night, or it is going to be Sunday night. Doesn't matter. Can't get before Tuesday now anyway.
I'm still excited about receiving the watch, even though I know it is really just a shiny new toy as much as anything. My excitement, however has dipped quite a bit since I ordered last month. Perhaps out of frustration of the launch. Patience is a virtue. I'm not very virtuous.
But.........we can't change things that have already happened, much like Cook and Co cannot poop watches out of their butts. We just have to wait.
Hopefully Apple has learned a few things from whatever went wrong with supply chain, and future launches will improve.
It was cute when I still had the will to debate and speculate, anticipate, and hope.
Now the ONLY thing that matters at all when I look at this forum is whether or not I see 30 people in a row proclaiming that they have charged.
Make it happen people

According to our trusty google spreadsheet, for those that were part of last Saturday's wave and entered their status change times, they got their notifications in the afternoon.
Presuming the same sort of time schedule for this Saturday, we will have several hours before we should expect any status changes. Thats if there is to be a wave this Saturday at all...
No Planes till Sunday
So I just looked up the planes information and the flight out of China has been delayed until Sunday. So I hope you do not think you are going to get shipment on Tuesday because I am willing to bet that the customs hub is closed on Sunday. I hope that I am wrong and our watches clear sooner than I thought.
So I was wrong the flight is leaving in four hours maybe there is hope for us.
