This is a hard read for me, I have a confirmation email :12 UK time. I've not been charged still, yet seeing people with :30 getting shipped sucks for me :(

That proves it's first on country then time I believe.

Absolutely based on country then time.

Depends on where they are at in your country.

Finally got my tracking number for the watch, not bands yet though.

What was your confirmation time? My second strap was 'May' was updated a few hours ago to a new 2-3 week delivery estimate.

I'm in the U.S. though.

XX:30 for my watch.

Straps are preparing for shipment, just haven't shipped yet.

Still waiting on an XX:04 38mm Small Modern Buckle. Still in "Processing"
 
Ouch!

If people that ordered before 4am are still waiting. I who ordered that night around 8:30pm have a ways to go. i guess i'll check back next week.

I'm thinking that the order clock will go much faster now that we're getting past XX:30 as the order rate probably plummeted after the initial rush.

My order was at XX+3:10, but now that they're moving forward, I'm somewhat hopeful that I'll get my watch within the next week.

42mm SS Milanese Loop delivered!

4/10 00:16 Los Angeles, CA
May 13-27th Delivery Window
Ordered via store.apple.com

Got my notification yesterday with my CC charged, and it came today at 1:00 PM PDT in Los Angeles. I'm a very happy guy.

Next time something like this comes up, I'm ordering through the Apple Store app on my iPhone. My best friend ordered his on the phone at 12:02 AM without any issues via the app. The actual website wouldn't function until about 12:08 AM for me.

Good luck to the rest of you!
 
Sorry dude.

Tell me about it!? Mine is :12 and I'm still processing :'(

Sorry dude, definitely sucks. Here's my story of woe:

Imagine though that your job is to review and analyze new consumer technology for your company to utilize and it's the day before your Father-In-Law's sudden funeral. You've flown cross country three times that week for him, he passed away the day before your birthday, which you then spent driving 8 hours through the midwest. You spend most of April 9th flying through Atlanta, having your plane cancelled, then replacement flight changed 3 times before getting to your destination and losing your bag. You finally put your bags down and sit on the bed at 12:45am CST the morning of April 10th. Knowing that nothing will really take away hurt or pain of the moment that you're in, one can still find temporary solace in small oasis', and Apple is one of those. You pull up the Apple Store app on your phone and prepare to have it ready to go. Your body begins to power down and you fight it but can't stop it. You then wake up several hours later in a panic, knowing you're definitely screwed but log your order as fast as possible. It's too late, and you know that you've missed the first wave...

All you wanted for your birthday was this Watch. The first new product from a company you have watched and loved since you were 10. You diligently waited in line for the original iPod, iPhone, and iPad on launch day. You consistently get asked at work how excited you are. Then you have to break to them the real awful news and the fact that you've failed at your job of being a super nerd on top of it. You have friends who work for the company, you call in all your favors, grasp at straws, then slowly accept that it's just going to suck and deal with it.

Dem the breaks sometimes guys, life sucks and isn't awesome. I really feel at this point it's never going to come (my coworker is getting her Sport she ordered with a June date tomorrow), and if it does I'll just resent it for making my blood pressure increase even more and making me distracted from being there for my wife. I'm sure a lot of us are in the same boat, just thought I'd use this chance to pull up a chair to our Watchaholics Anonymous meeting here and spill.

Damn man, my condolences for your loss, you defiantly deserve to have it before me!

Me being in the UK I have no excuse really as the store opened at 8am, so I was awake. However for some reason I didn't try the app, the website was down and by the time it came up it was the second wave :(

Hope you enjoy the watch mate.

Got the watch a few hours ago and it's been fabulous. Good luck to the rest of you and I hope you all get your watches soon! :)

Man this has been a long wait.

On a whim I posted the watch on CL for $1,100 and ironically I regret it. Almost immediately I had someone email me saying they want to buy it tomorrow and asked me where I want them to meet. After the sales tax I paid that's close to a $350 profit if I sell. The 42 SS MIL is exactly the model I want. Apple store shows July shipping for this model.

So because of the economic principle of opportunity cost I've now put myself in the position where I have to decide if I want to pay $350 for the privilege of having the watch now instead of waiting two months. My mind's telling me no, but my body, my body, is telling me yes! :/ What should I do...

Thanks dude, we all paid for and therefore deserve watches, just funny when it takes so long to take our money.

What part of UK you in? Going that way later this year (hopefully with something on my wrist).
