Groups before us all got move up to before their expected delivery... We just got moved back a week... Oh well... it figures... life's not fair... We have it so rough...

Exactly, people who ordered before you will get theirs before you. And like I said, you were also moved up almost a week before the worst case promised date. June 3-5 is well within the promised May 29-June 11. Seems fair to me.
 
This is true, but from the standpoint of having seen deliveries jump significantly over the last several hours...it's a bit surprising. I'd expected that my order would ship tomorrow (since orders within 30 minutes of mine are already preparing for shipment) but now it's going to be a week away, at best.

I don't know if this is just an automatic "anyone we haven't shipped yet gets this status change" thing, or if they've drawn a line in the sand and said "anyone at T+4 hours or later has to wait another week, while we build up stock for the stores." Or something like that.

Yes, it's still within the schedule promised, but it's frustrating in that I was --> <-- this close to seeing it ship.

(I'm hoping it's just an automatic, blanket status change, and those of us near the currently shipping orders still ship in the next day or so).

I totally understand the frustration. But the only thing I am expecting is to at least get my watch between May 29-June 11. Any other expectation seems to just add to the frustration.

Well, then maybe you (and I!) shouldn't be reading this forum anymore. :D
 
Looks like Apple is updating people's shipping estimates. Mine just changed from June 22-29 to June 4-8. Check yours and hopefully you'll see an improvement!

Order 4/10 5:47AM EST, went to PFS and charged sometime late last night.
Still PFS right now, hoping to see it ship sometime before this afternoon.
In Florida.

I'm no logistics expert, wonder how this should have been handled. People who ordered SG on Day one just getting their orders now but people who ordered other models just a few days ago get them within a few days

Apple Executive Realtions told me that story about watches in stores in June is untrue, but I don't believe it any more.

Wow, that makes me hope a little for my may 16th order which has June25-July 1....Let's hope to slip forward a week or so :D
 
Ordered April 12th. Originally "June" and then late June (25-29) and changed as of today to June 3-5th.

This is hopefully a good sign that my 4/16 order will arrive prior to my 6/22-6/29 window. That's quite a jump.
 
It's been asked before so I apologize...but how long after preparing for shipment to you guys receive the shipping notification?
 
If Apple is changing the majority of people's delivery dates to June 4-8 it makes me think they've been stockpiling watches for a massive distribution. Perhaps in prep for having watches available for purchase in-store earlier in June than later?
 
Add one more to the list that got pushed back to June 3-5 from possible May 29th date. I was so hoping for this Friday. :confused:
 
I was in the May 29 - June 11 camp that was moved to June 3 -5 as well. Seems to me that the window just narrowed, as Apple is now more confident of their ability to ship. Also, the window is an estimated delivery window, so I'd expect many of the orders to be charged and shipped by the end of the week or so...

42mm Space Grey (June 3rd - June 5th.

Seems we're gonna have to change the name of this thread to 42mm Space Grey (June 3rd - June 5th).

:):cool::apple:

My status is now June 3rd-June 5th as well. Ordered 8:40am EST. Ordered my wife a 38mm Aluminum white band on the April 16th got it April 29th. Does the space grey go to an extra step to be grey??? Anyway I guess the thread still covers our date.

Just seems the were totally off on their estimates regarding sales of some models.

It is what it is.
 
Does Apple not understand math?

Available to ship: 4-6 business days; Delivers: 03 Jun, 2015 - 05 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping

... soooo, 6-8 business days.

I think they are suggesting that the product will be available to ship in 4-6 business days, and delivered 2 business days after it ships.
