Mine comes Monday

Is anyone else over the apple watch even though they will get it in a few days (Monday)

I have a real bad taste in my mouth from this whole experience and truly don't know if I'll keep it even after I get it Monday. I mean we all ordered this watch on launch day , watched every tech editor and YouTube review it over a month ago, and many of them not care about it anymore , and it's taken almost 2 months.
This thing better be unbelievable or I will just return it in the return window .

Just wondering if anyone else feels the same way.

Thanks

believe me, I have the same thoughts. At some point I just kind of said, not much I can do, so wait till the date. The shipping dates have improved and there seems to be movement, so hope for the best. Now, if something screws up my delivery that states June 17 -23, that will be a different story.

Cool Cervelo, glad I'm not alone, It is sad, and kinda a strange feeling to not be really happy for a new gadget , it's just been so unbelievably long, and all the casual people have theirs already and many be done with the the watch all together,

You will probably get it before that date , be hopeful and stay positive !!!

1000% agree. My apple watch is coming on Monday and IF I DONT LOVE IT I AM GOING TO RETURN IT. PERIOD. I HAD TO WAIT SOOOOOO LONG FOR THIS. Was it unfair, yes. Does Apple give a ****? No. (Oh **** just remembered I brought a gift card to ensure my order didn't declined. Sneaky Apple. Ensuring profits.)

Well I tried it in the Apple Store and found it amazing . I am sure you will be satisfied too . I am getting mine on Monday .
 
An update: Now I'm PO'd.

Ordered April 12th. Originally "June" and then late June (25-29) and changed as of today to June 3-5th.

SO, I purchased my Apple Watch using Apple Pay. Between then and now, I had restored my iPhone, which of course wipes out all of your Apple Pay cards. Knowing this full well, I contacted Apple.com's sales support staff and was told that there was no need to worry, because my card was already previously authorized, I did not need to update my payment information. Even if I wanted to, Apple.com would not let me update my payment information - it required a potentially lengthy phone call into them, but since I was told it didn't matter, I didn't call 'em.

Well, late this evening apparently my order was getting ready to move from "Processing Items" to "Preparing to Ship" and my transaction was declined (surprise!). I am now able to change my payment info, but the order is back in the "Processing Items" and the shipment date has been pushed further back.

Great launch, guys!

Don't worry . Solve the issue and move on . !!!
 
My order (April 12 at 2:19 pm eastern) just updated to "June 3 - June 5" I think, based on this update, I am about to get a charge and PFS. What is the latest anyone has been charged so far?
 
You totally work for apple man. If you go back and read this guys post. Smh. apple.com. I can't. BUT I have to say you're doing an awesome job at customer service via forum...... Keep up the positivity!

Keep complaining is it going to help . I am still to get my watch . You gave to work around problems not get submerged by them . Seeing the glass as half empty is not a good way to handle stuff.
There is a quote " I used to cry I had no shoes , until I met a man who had no feet " !!!
Amen !!!

As I have stated in a previous message, I am now at PFS and have been since around midnight. Does anyone know if people have received shipped notifications on a Saturday?

I'm waiting as well, PFS around 12:45AM. I saw on another thread someone was charged last night, and has a tracking number this morning. So I think we will see something today.
 
My Watch has shipped as Monday the delivery date, however on UPS.com it says the package is stil iin Export Scan in Shangai and I doubt UPS fly or process packages in US on Sunday... I really hope it's gonna arrive in 2 days.

Thanks for the information. #

Thanks. Did they say when the delivery date was for them?

Seven... Did you by chance use UPS MyChoice? If so, I discovered (like many others), that when you ask UPS to hold your package for self pickup, tracking info stops reporting. Just a thought.
