Ok now I’m regretting making this thread lol. Not one store within 50 miles of NYC showed and in store pickup this morning for me. Playing around with the Configurator now and still nothing showing for in store pickup for anything. Which NYC store? I have 12 stores showing up in my immediate area and nothing.
Fifth Ave (not all carry the Hermes). I checked again after my order went through and it showed unavailable so I may have snagged the last of the combo I wanted

Probably one for each store if they even do carry it at all with the supply chain issues.
 
Hermes has this on their website. They ship on 10-15 per their reps.
I get 10% off Veteran discount at Apple. Takes a nice little chunk off a $1200 purchase lol. I know I know, shopping Hermes and looking for a discount lol. I do appreciate the heads up though 👍
 
Ok ok, so apparently my thoughts were way off. Seeing as I was on the website this morning only a few measly five minutes after it went live (slow to load) then having to find and select my options and adding my S6 trade in. Then seeing all the 45mm options I selected (mainly SS and Ti) all had shipping dates in November with no availability to pick up in store, I assumed that Apple was sneakily pushing the “later this fall” date back without making it too obvious that there are still issues with production. All your posts prove me wrong and I’m happy for you guys and gals getting the Watch next week. My wife included lol. To think I woke up at 0745 after only four hours of sleep and still got shafted. Made no difference since I just canceled my original order and made a new one about an hour ago. Don’t I feel like the effin ****** lol.
 
Yes. I ordered Through the apple store on my iPhone. opened right on time, waiting 2 minutes past For it to go live, ordered the midnight 41 mm nike edition with the black Velcro. But for some reason the description says summit white, tho I clicked black and the image shows black as well…. But it’s October 15th for me.

edit: ooopps, didn’t see it was for 45mm users

Anyone from the UK get a 15 October delivery? Particularly those who didn’t opt for a standard sports band?
I ordered two watches with non standard sports band. None of the various options I preferred had collection in store options, so I went for the sports loop and got a delivery of 18-21 October. After placing the order I fiddled some more with configurations and suddenly, with the standard sports band, local collection (Belfast) appeared. So I ordered another two for collection on 15 October. After about an hour I was able to go into my orders on the website and cancel the original.
 
Actually, I’m now wondering is it has something to do with the Military/Veterans discount. Maybe giving the full paying customers first dibs. Fair trade off I suppose.
I wish the UK looked after it‘s veterans the way the US do… No discounts here. Illegal migrants flooding the English Channel get better support than our own vets.
 
I got my Graphite SS 45mm with solo loop for 15th October, and that was nearly two hours after the preorders opened. I do however live in London UK and opted for in store pick up
 
Midnight 45mm arriving on 15th October here. Got on just after 8am through the Apple store app.
 
ordered graphite 45mm with midnight leather. Email confirmation was 4 mins past and still said 2-9 November
 
This combination was restocked for in store pickup in many places across the USA for Oct 15. Check your local stores if you are in the states and you are looking for a SS model.
