42MM Stainless Milanese. Ordered 12:02 AM. Card has been charged and order status has read "Preparing for shipment" since Monday night. I don't see it arriving by Friday. :(
 
Ordered mine at the dreaded 3:04 EDT (confirmation email). No charge and its at processing. Not expecting anything until next week at the earliest.
 
Sure, they could ship sooner. But most likely not this model.


We knew this went we went into it. The only thing that is an issue, is that in spite of how quick we were, we most likely weren't quick enough :D

I realistically don't expect mine until May 27th. I will be pleasantly surprised if it shows up before then.

Right. Best to accept this now and be done with it. Don't bother checking, etc.

It's fun though watching the pandemonium here.

What a circus :D
 
42 mm space grey. Ordered at 12:10 ish. Got 4-6 weeks shipping date. Still no charge or change in the shipping date. Atlanta area
 
00:03:51 42mm SG Black Band.

no charges, no changes...and it's 14.50 PDT

I'm not holding out much hope to get it earlier than 13th May and am likely to avoid the forums for the next few weeks so I don't get jealous of the thousands of people who post pics of their watch...there will be hundreds and hundreds of "here it is!" threads
 
:( Maybe we will get lucky. This being the most popular model and color, we may not get a quick shipping. Other colors within the range seem to be preparing for shipping, though.

There is hope! We may have it by next Friday!
 
I really don't think we have anything to worry about.

SG Sport... VERY Popular. You think there is any way that Apple didn't know it would be this popular? I think that all of them are already in hubs and will go out tomorrow.

I don't think so. Very weak supply. They've said it over and over.

Maybe they are actually telling us the truth, no?

I think you're too optimistic. :confused:

Confirmed from Apple that they are starting to ship orders sooner. No details on which ones though.

Many customers does not mean SG customers.
 
Was told earlier not to speculate so here's not speculation but a highly educated guess: We are on the same delayed boat with our orders but when the first dominos falls they will all fall. Once the first person gets preparing to ship in this group, the majority will also be in that grouping.

Agreed. The race is on to see who will be the first domino.
 
Order went through XX:09 for the 42mm SG got 12th to 26th and still processing. I'm in the UK

Seeing a lot of SG orders going through on other forums but with earlier dates. Promising though, maybe someone here will get lucky.
 
the SG orders that are being shipped are likely the 4/24 - 5/8 bunch. The 5/13 - 5/27 group will likely have to wait until mid May like the estimates show. I would not hold my breath too long for seeing mid May orders arriving before mid May.
 
Still no change to my status of "Processing Items"

42mm SG at 12:05am PT.

#TeamSG46 for life!
