Mine has the same scans. Definitely something odd going on with them...This is what mine says now (by tracking by reference):
it's 12:17AM (Sept 22) in Shanghai. None of this makes sense.
whatever. i'll expect it to arrive next week. not gonna stress over a few days of delivery time.
EDIT:
Both the tracking (and by reference) says that scheduled delivery information is not available (it previously said Sept 21st). Well that settles that.

So I ended up cancelling my online order and got one at the same time that I got my Xs. Love it.

I have gotten watches before with no signature. Let me now blow your mind and tell you that UPS did not make me sign for my iPhones today. Had 2 of them. Dude just left them on our front porch. And, no, I did not sign in advance.
Nope. Never moved nor was I ever charged. I was able to cancel via the Apple Store iOS app while checking out at my local Apple Store.

Apparently some of you are confused by Apple's delivery estimate of Sep 27. But if you look at this notification, you'll notice that the wording is slightly different, which makes a huge difference. That means the delivery could happen anytime between today and Sep 27, and not actually ON the 27th.
Well there are 3 items to consider. One the shipments need to clear customs in Alaska before being sent to the continental USA. Is customs open all weekend or do they take Friday night and/or Saturday off? Second, UPS does not move packages all weekend I believe they stop on Saturday and then resume Sunday evening. Third, what kind of shipping did Apple contract for - 2 day shipping perhaps?
Thus if these watches get held up in Alaska and cannot be sent out until Sunday night at the earliest by UPS and then assume they arrive at the UPS staging location before being sent out for delivery via 2 day shipping it is entirely possible the earliest they will be delivered is September 27.

Probably tonight. Mine's at the same stage right now. Around midnight, probably.
That really takes stock from those who don't see one for weeks. That said I understand the impulse.
Apple website now reflects the 24th delivery date the UPS app reported earlier today for me.
Well, it seems like it will be the first time my launch day order doesn't arrive when it's supposed to.
UPS still lists it "Friday, 09/21/2018 , By End of Day", but it's past 8PM and the tracking still doesn't even say it's on the local delivery truck...

Why doesn't Apple use multiple carriers is beyond me. overwhelming UPS with millions upon millions of orders for one day is ridiculous. And why always a Friday delivery? That makes people wait until Monday for their stuff.
