Ordered 4:10A EST, still Processing. Figured, but hoping for a magical late notice since I live in Indy so close to all of the shipping hubs.
 
Ordered 12:02am
Charged 4/20
Coming to Arizona
Still preparing for shipment and nothing on UPS :(
 
3:04am EST confirmation email. Amex charged and preparing for shipment, but no "shipped" notice or tracking number. Beginning to doubt I'll receive on Friday 4/24, so I'm anticipating Monday instead :-(
 
No movement on mine either....hasn't hit my card yet. The sport I ordered has shipped though.
 
I'm in Northern California. I ordered at 12:04 /w Apple Pay and then I was charged on the 21st. My status still shows "preparing for shipment," but was able to pull up my tracking number by reference on ups.com this morning and it says "Scheduled Delivery: Friday, 04/24/2015"

YES! :D
 
I was one of the first to get "Preparing for Shipment" and am still there, my confirmation email was at 0203 CST. (I also have a tracking #)
I am pretty confident that I will get it tomorrow though. I get parts overnighted to me all the time for my work, and as long as I get my order in my 8pm I will typically get my part by 8am the next morning. These shipping companies know what they are doing.
 
What do you think guys, Apple overestimate how many CBs they would receive?

For the first hour or so, it was showing a 24/4-08/5 delivery window so I got my hopes up even with a 8:21 order.

If not tomorrow, I hope it arrives early next week :mad:
 
Ordered mine at 103 MDT on opening morning and I just completed the UPS track by reference and found my tracking number. Slated to be delivered by 3PM tomorrow. My Apple update still says, prepared to be shipped.
 
If most were charged Monday for a Friday arrival date, then I'm thinking I am at least five days out from the time mine moves to preparing for shipment.

I got the email last night -- the worst thing about it is that it still lists 4/24 - 5/8 as the shipping window, when it's clear I won't be getting it on 4/24! The best thing Apple could do is readjust the shipping window for those not getting it on 4/24.

Great news. MAYBE.

I received the EOD last night (Email of Death lols). The apple watch has yet to hit my bank for the charges prior to lunch today. When I got back from lunch I noticed the charge was finally there.

Its progress at least ;-)
