I just got shipping notification. It will be here tomorrow. Yeah baby! My card was charged this morning. Hang in there fellas, they are coming.

42mm Space Grey Sport
 
Ordered at xx:07 according to the e-mail confirmation. No sign of any movement which seems par for the course for that time.

Dumb question....how are you all figuring out the exact second of your order? Are you going off the confirmation e-mails?
Forward yourself the confirmation email and look at the email headers. It will be time stamped with the seconds.

This normally means your order was placed a couple seconds before the confirmation email. My Order was placed at 03:06:23 and my email is stamped 03:06:25
 
Unfortunately, I'm in the Greater LA (Riverside) area so driving 2 and a half hours in to LA and 2 and a half back (two times) isn't a possibility for me (I like the watch but not enough to drive 10 hours total). The 91 is horrible. :) If anyone else is closer to the LA area it seems like that's a much better option than having to check for status updates every 2 minutes. ;)

I work for an airline and considered flying down to LA to get in line at Maxfields last week. Right now I feel like I should have.
 
Ok guys I told you I would let you know as soon as I found out anything. I just got an email notification at 5:31 P.M. central that my item has shipped. I have a tracking number but it doesn't seem to be live yet. I will keep you all posted.
 
I say definitely try to do it tonight. Try to get there before 6 because they do a hard stop of preorders at 7. I would say tomorrow and the weekend could be more hectic although they do seem to get shipments daily.

I was not a believer until I got the call and almost screamed at work due to excitement.

My work is only 4.5 miles away! But I bus... my wife takes my car cause she can't afford her own. But she needs it for her job. Gonna head there after work!

I hope my order is fulfilled by this weekend. I'm so annoyed with Apple right now.

Hmmm...only shows the minute on my header in gmail. Oh well. I'll just assume I'm at the end of the minute

When did you guys get charged and what were your order times?
 
I agree, but I also went there and bought a 42mm SS BSB. I'm happy they are getting stock because after my try on I regretted my initial preorder and if it weren't for Maxfield I would just have had to live with it until the apple watch 2.

They should have never done the online Pre-order if they were so low on stock. This whole thing has been handled poorly and has been set up to make their loyal customers feel like crap... short of the handful that actually received theirs on the first day.

I guess if you use Gmail there is a different process to get the seconds to display in a forward. I recall seeing it in this thread but its a LOOONG thread lol. :)
 
My initial email order confirmation was at XX:05:41. My card was charged sometime this morning approximately 3:30 and I just got tracking number at 5:31 this afternoon

If you got to the Apple store website and enter into a chat they can give you the specific time of your order.

I was one of those who tried the online order and not from the app so I could not get into the queue early. Then I ran into problems with getting the site to recognize my Apple Store Gift Card. :mad: By the time I got through my order was at xx:15:56 :eek: After learning about the taptic issues late last night I predicted that most of us with >10 minutes would probably not see our watches until the May13-27 time slot. Although there is movement with watches today, we are still seeing the 4 and 5 minute orders mainly. It's looking like each minute is taking 1.5 days. So I'm not getting my hopes up too high and resigning myself to the fact that it'll be a 2+ week wait. Maybe a miracle will happen but I'm not counting on it. What is frustrating is those who are able to walk into a boutique store and get one quicker than those of us who stayed up to the wee hours of the night to order. :( I just doesn't quite seem fair. But who said life was fair.

^THIS, we should be going by this. My order was received at xx:05.08, and thats the group I'm shipping into instead of my email that was 1)deleted on accident and 2) at xx:04.xx.
btw, I just went to shipping, but the UPS tracking number isn't active.
 
:10.
42SG
10 freakin' minutes after opening bell. I would be exponentially more distraught but we're at Disney World. Come on :apple:!!! Mickey wants to see the freakin' Mickey!!!
Yes- I had the shipping address changed to FL. Thinking I'd get it quicker in FL than WI. Seems as that didn't really work out...
 
I cancelled my orders from Apple in the XX:06 timeframe. I ended up picking one up from Maxfields. Can't believe that was an easier route than pre-ordering at midnight.

But now that my orders are cancelled, I hope they move up some people!
 
Ordered on 4/10.
Email and Apple chat confirmation at :05.
Card charged around 3:00am CST.
Status is now: Preparing for shipping.
Going to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.
Used Apple Store App.

Got my shipping notification. Supposed to be here tomorrow.
 
Shipping confirmation has arrived. Looks like tomorrow is (hopefully) the day. Txt message from Apple says it deliver before May 1 but the tracking number isn't up yet. Can't wait to get it!
 
Starting to think there's no watch today. UPS site says delivered by 3pm. It's 4.15 and still nothing. If they don't get here by 5, I won't be able to get it because Apple missed my apartment number off the delivery address (it's there on the apple site but not on the UPS site). If they deliver by 5 then the site office will take it and know where I am, if not I'm screwed. So close and yet so far
