Charged and forgotten
From Fort Lauderdale
Order Processed launch day at XX:06:05 AM
Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band
My status: Endlessly Processing Items Available to ship: 4-6 weeks
Delivers: May 13 - May 27 by Standard Shipping
On April 29, around 4 AM there was an attempted charge on my Bank of America Visa, (I ordered the watch via Apple Pay) and they declined it!!!!!!!!!!! I fixed it with the bank and supposedly with Apple by 8:30 AM.
Bank of America shows: Apple Online Charge: Pending
Since then there has been absolutely zero movement, this is killing me.

Nothing here either..:05:51 in South Florida.
On another note, my friend who lives close to me ordered the same watch just a few minutes later than I did got processed yesterday with the large wave of charges and is set for delivery today. There is no rhyme or reason to Apple and the order they are shipping these.

06:29 here. No charge or status change. Onto next week
Sadly, I've actually lost all excitement about the watch.
Yet you are here checking in on a thread dedicated to order status....
In another thread, three people posted that the got charged for 42 sg bsb, but they were 07, 09, and a 17 out of Paris. I'm calling bs on all of them.
Actually relieved no one got charged. If I had been skipped over again I would have lost it. There's a flight coming in around 9:30am. Maybe that will be us. (I'm really pathetic still having optimism)
Honestly at this point, I would rather Apple take their time and send me a watch that works. Especially with the Taptec issues. I would rather wait an extra week to not have to deal with the hassle of maybe receiving one I'll have to return, which could end up making the overall wait even longer.
The :17 and :09 are the same dude and he ordered a 38mm SG Sport watch, so wrong thread.
Not sure who's that :07 guy but FYI I ordered a 42mm SG Sport watch at 09:07 UTC+1 (Paris, France) and my status is still "Processing" and no charge.
As far as I read the 42 SG watches which are currently getting shipped or delivered are the ones which got ordered around 09:03/09:04 in France.

My time is XX:06:22; same estimate. The pending charge showed up on the 27th and is still there, but I'm still processing. Melbourne, FL. Maybe my watch has been waiting on yours?
Nothing for me. How do you tell what the actual "order time" is on Apple? My gmail confirmation email only shows the minutes (it is XX:07). How can I tell the seconds?
Thought I would finally chime in with my status...processing and no charges

I got there a little after 4:30 yesterday to order mine. You don't happen to be the guy who looked like McLovin' that I saw there are you.
One can find the seconds by looking at the headers of the email. One should be able to see the time that the email was sent and when the server received it. For example in gmail there is an option called "show original." Other people have said that they forwarded the email to themselves and that revealed the headers.
