xx:12:18
Billed last night/early morning
Got my shipped notification around 5:00 pm and a few minutes after that UPS showed a delivery date of tomorrow.

It's been a long road but all of you still waiting, hang tight. My fingers are crossed that the big waves continue until everyone has their Watch :)
 
I selected a UPS Store pick up for my other watch and it was delivered the same day as originally scheduled. I actually got it earlier than if it went to my house as the UPS man comes really late in my area, but the UPS Store had it ready by 11am. The store I selected was next to my office so I was able to go get it over lunch :D

Ya, "Shipped" and "Delivered" are different windows. I think it assumes a standard shipment that takes up to a week to deliver, but with the watch orders originating in the US and being sent next-day air, the two quotes are more or less the same.

Yeah I'm soooo lost man hahaha so theres a chance this week? if not next week I'm guessing? When do the charges or prepared to ship happen? when the watch arrives at a apple warehouse here? or when planes arrive here in Louieville? lol

If you are a xx:19, I would think your most likely scenario would be by EOW next week, not this one, as there are still the 18's to go as well before you.

But I hope I am wrong and you get by THIS Friday. Just don't get your hopes up. I know how my nerves were last week when the wave was over, and I was about 20 seconds past that wave. Six days later I was finally charged, when I was all excited thinking on last Monday's wave that SURELY they would ship another 30 seconds worth by the end of the week......but nope.
 
When do you guys think the next wave will be. I'm XX:19 and I think i'll be in that wave.
There has been no rhyme or reason for shipment patterns so far. Two weeks ago there were several waves of somewhat small shipments...this past weekend there was a single huge wave. Basically, take any answer to this question with a big grain of salt...

Your wave will be Wednesday.

Yeah I can't lie, I'm hopeful but I am realizing that if apple is going to stockpile for in store launch, and build reserves for repairs exchanges and what not, right now is the perfect time to do it. Having said that, there has to be a few more shipments because from the sounds of it, not all of the 13-27 crowd has received theirs yet.
 
I know I know lol

Has anyone ever figured out or have an idea of when the preparing for shipment part happens? When the planes arrive in Louisville? I know its been all over the map with these preorders lmao basically how the process works with any of these flights?

Don't forget about the people in the May 29-June 11 bracket. They will definitely get there watches before available in store. I believe early July will be the in store date.
 
My watch showed up under my support profile (http://supportprofile.apple.com), so I gave it a nickname then plugged the serial number into sndeep.info. It pegged the manufacture date at week 19, May 11-17, so it looks like this batch of watches are fresh off the line!

UPS also emailed me to let me know what it's confirmed for delivery before 3pm tomorrow!
 
But the email from Apple says Delivery tomorrow

Well if you have a confirmation then yes or apple says its en route then probably.
Mine is STILL processing despite being charged early this morning and apple tells me this week at some point.
 
Where in the frickity frack is Linthicum, MD and why is my watch there ? It left Harrisburg, PA earlier. Just a pit stop on the way I guess ?
 
I don't want to be a downer but based on this recent wave I expect the final wave will be for deliveries on the 27th. Maybe a few in between but the majority in this window will get shipping notices on Memorial Day and delivered next Wed.

If I am wrong, bonus for all of you and it would not hurt my feelings to be told I was wrong.
 
This forum helped me have patient waiting for my Apple Watch. Otherwise, it would have been very frustrating waiting for the watch. So, thanks, for the rants negative and positive. It helped me to have patient, knowing that others were in the same boat as me.
