42mm Space Grey (May 29th - June 11th)

Now that the missus watch is PFS and arrives this week the anticipation rises again for mine. But I also think Apple will now honour the delivery times they quoted to people. They might arrive a day earlier but not more. Then again let's see ey!

Update from processing hell:

Order on – Model – Delivery ETA
10/04 – 42 SG BSB – 27/05 10/06

21/04 – Bright Blue Leather Loop Large – 25/05 01/06
-> CC charged -> EOD

27/04 – 38 SS WSB – 14/05 21/05
-> EOD -> CC charge -> PFS
 
I ordered :30 into the April 10th pre order. Got a 42mm SG BSB with originally "June" shipping. Now have may 29-June 11. Has anyone received their 42 SG EARLY? Just curious and tired of waiting....
 
I tried ordering on both the app and website and kept refreshing until about xx.06 or so when I got fed up with the Apple status not being available yet. I then messed around with other things for a few minutes before trying again and getting through. I should've kept on trying.

42mm SG BSB
Email confirmation xx.22.15
Status: Processing
Available 4-6 weeks, May 29 - June 11
(originally just June)
Portland, Oregon

I'm keeping track on the May 13 - 27 forum and their just getting into shipping the xx.10 minute mark. I have noticed the times seem to be going faster now which is a good sign for us.
 
This has been one of the worst launches since 2007. I have been in line every release since the original iPhone including iPads. I think they should of sold 38 and 42s of each color/make and with a sport band of black and white. At that point stock the apple stores and websites to allow customers to customize it. This would of helped with the demand etc... Sent an email to Cook but doubt be read it. I have come close to canceling but after playing with my aunts this weekend I can't. But I am more now wanting after experiencing it....
 
Seems like there's a broad range of confirmation times for the 5-29 to 6-11 delivery date. Confirmation times seem to range between xx:30:00 to 04:00:00 PST, where the 4-24 to 5-28 delivery window was only the first 30 mins of pre-orders. I'm assuming there is a massive ramp in production coming up.
Yeah baby!
 
I can't figure how to put my screenshot from my chat on here but the last Apple agent told me I should see a notification in the next day or two as mine was being packaged now and just depends on how fast fed ex or ups gets it. He said most of the May 29-June 11 SG are being boxed now and because mine was right at :30:01 I should see soon. He said most should receive notification between the 12th-15th. Now if this is true...is a different story

Whaaaaaaaaaaat?! That's great news! Here's to hoping it's true!

When was this conversation? Cmd+shift+F4 will allow you to screenshot and then you can post the image found on your desktop. If on an OS X machine.

I wanted to write an essay why above is true but I will simply say:
Because this is what I choose to believe.

At least for Australia that is!
 
I have an estimated delivery date of 27th May - 9th June.

I have to say it again, as many others already have. This has been the most frustrating launch ever, along with the new Macbook.

I ordered both these devices on the 10th and am still waiting for them both. I know no one can help me and this mini-rant is pointless, but.... loss of words now...

Sorry, but this is extraordinarily hard to believe without some independent verification because 1) how far behind Apple continues to struggle with SG orders and 2) how clueless Apple CS reps have been the entire time since 4/10. I seriously doubt that Apple is just now happily funneling info to their army of clueless CS reps.

I wouldn't get your hopes up, guys.
 
On a slightly related note, my Macbook which was due for delivery between 15th - 29th May is being prepared for shipment. I have noticed lots of preorders actually being fulfilled and delivered at the earlier end of estimates.

Owing to this, I am optimistic that in 2 weeks from now, we will all have our watches!! (I am a 27th May - 9th June window...)
 
As I said in my message. I would take it for what it's worth. These customer service reps are probably tired of hearing from us. They can only see what we see. I wouldn't doubt it if they come as it says on our order. That is what I am counting on. Just figured it may give a little hope....

What's with all these xx's?? I feel like I missed a memo somewhere...

xx:xx:xx hours:minutes:seconds

The first default xx that people are using represents the hour that pre-orders went live. So 12am PST or 3am EST. the actual numbers you see, for example xx:27:34, would be the minutes after pre-orders went live.
