Agreed! XS Max is coming tomorrow, but looking more forward to Apple Watch.

BTW, I think it's funny how we're all excited about getting our cards charged.
(My card was charged, per Apple: Preparing to Ship, and no updates via UPS by reference number but keeping an eye on it.)

Haha I know right? It's perfectly "Shut up and take my money!"

I’m thinking our PFS orders could stay at this status until next week....watches are in China so doubtful tommorrow is an option...would be so cool though!!
 
So I hedged my bets. I have a Best Buy literally in walking distance and stopped by on the way home. Politely talked to the Mobile team there and they did some digging and found out that they have ONE on the way and it is NOT reserved. They went ahead and reserved it, but are not sure WHEN it will be there. Hoping tonight or tomorrow, then I would cancel my Apple order. But I have two reserved at the moment, knowing ONE is on the way hah.
 
I agree that it is possible to get it tomorrow. It could be shipped out of a FED EX Hub that no-one is even looking at. I know in the past with the watches, I have received them via fed ex and got tracking the day it was delivered. We shall see.

I really have a hard time believing the watch will arrive tomorrow. Probably more like mid next week up to next Friday the earliest scheduled delivery date.

Thats what I am thinking, Tuesday at best. All day 1 watches are coming from China, not sure why ours would already be here, but I hope.

Agreed. It's been my experience that they'll come from China; so either Apple is just locking us all in before launch day, so that those who get one on launch day will have to wait to be refunded:confused:
OR
They are actually preparing to ship from China and, at best, we'll get it Monday (fingers crossed for this result).o_O

They've done it to me before, can't remember if it was the 6+ or Series 2 Apple Watch, but they put everyone in Preparing to Ship the night before launch day so you couldn't cancel and try to get in store. Similar to this, but they still beat delivery estimate, just not by much.
 
Mine still hasn’t budged. Guess it gives me time to try and pick one up tomorrow.

Well I'm hoping your right, that would be the best if it came tomorrow :) :apple:
 
for the apple watch I just did a tracking by reference# on the ups website without the last two digits of my order# and got a tracking number on schedule for delivery tomorrow. Apple says my watch will be here between sept 28 to oct. 2. Anyone want to check it out and see if they get the same results back?

Are you sure it is yours? I have done that and the package that comes up is going to Burbank CA. I do not live in Burbank.

I did the same thing, without using my destination zipcode...needless to say, I got my hopes up.
 
I ordered through Apple at 3:05 44mm SS white sport band with delivery 9/28-10/2 - charged this afternoon and changed to preparing to ship today and UPS my choice updated tonight - my watch is sitting in Mount Juliet, TN since 2:41pm today. Don’t know why they couldn’t have moved it just a bit quicker...

Also placed an order through Verizon because of their “delivery by: 9/21” promise but that hasn’t moved either. Was going to cancel Apple when/if Verizon shipped but who knows which one will come first.

Does it show you a delivery date?
 
Mine is still preparing for delivery! Any idea when will it be delivered?

My AppleCare was charged, weird. No change on apple yet, but think they will go Preparing to Ship by tomorrow at the latest.

Edit: Now Preparing to Ship as well, just like I thought would happen.
Any idea when mine will be shipped?
