Thanks. So roughly 12 hour lag time, that's encouraging. I'm going to hold then until after tonight's NCIS L.A. finale before I look again. I. Will. Practice. Self. Control. I simply must. I can't get anything else done today, I have plants still in their containers that should have been potted by now, but I'm too busy watching everyone else get their shipping updates and dreaming that soon I will be amongst them.
Although... I just received an email from Apple Showing it has shipped and will be here tomorrow May 19th! Yay!!!!
This morning about 3am EST. Then my order went PFS. And just a little bit ago it finally shipped.
I'm in the same boat...ordered my large brown modern buckle at XX:12 so two minutes after you. At this rate I'm thinking I should just be asking Applecare to put my order towards the Apple Watch 2 :roll eyes:
I've got 6 days left in my shipping window now which is only 4 actual shipping days. The only surprise and delight I'm expecting is if they actually ship my watch on time. My hopes are boosted by everyone suddenly receiving updates to their orders but I will remain a little cynical (and desperate) until mine updates too #sozaboutit
My wife's 38MM Stainless Steel w/medium Brown Modern Buckle went PFS earlier today and "Shipped" at around 4PM Pacific. Confirmed UPS next day "Air Saver". Ordered at 00:04:45 or so on the 10th.
My 42MM Stainless / Black Sports Band ordered at 00:04:25 came on May 1st.
Finally our family will be all together.

I got you both beat. :06 large brown modern buckle. Seen a lot of other size brown modern buckles go out with times later than ours. Be patient. 3 or 4 more flights coming in tonight. The end is nigh.
Small Pink modern buckle ordered at xx:04 on 4/10
Charged cc @ 1am this morning, woke up to find the Amex alert waiting for me. "Shipped" notice from Apple Store received 14 hours later at 3pm. Says it will be delivered tomorrow (5/19) via UPS! Does anyone know where they are shipping from within the U.S.? Doesn't matter, just curious, and happy.

. "Shipped" notice from Apple Store received 14 hours later at 3pm. Says it will be delivered tomorrow (5/19) via UPS! Does anyone know where they are shipping from within the U.S.? Doesn't matter, just curious, and happy.I got a shipped notice (UPS Express Saver) at 6:18 PM ET, tracking number provided but no dates & UPS doesn't have any info on their system yet. I guess that means the label has been created etc., but UPS hasn't picked it up. What I don't know if that means that haven't picked it up in Hamilton, or in Alaska. I've seen things show up at my door before UPS has it appearing on their systems before. Holiday Mondays can really be a nuisance sometimes. All good news though!

Mine is coming via UPS. Their tracking info says it started in Ontario, CA Monday at 7:28pm. As of 2:13am Tuesday (today) it arrived in Louisville (two hours south of suburban Indianapolis, where it's headed). It's to be delivered here between 1:45pm and 5:45pm Tuesday afternoon. I have confidence!
My card was charged and the status changed to PFS overnight Sunday to Monday. By Monday at 6:21pm it had changed to Shipped. Then it departed from Ontario, CA an hour later.
So once it happens, it does happen quickly!
Within my UPS tracking was the option to fill out and leave a form on my front door to waive signature. I may do this, as my college-aged daughter will be home but she kind of freaks out if she has to answer the door when she's home alone. I will come home from work mid-afternoon after an appointment I can't miss, and can sign once I'm home, but at least this gives me an option if it arrives early. Don't know if all shipments have this option, or if it's because I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood where UPS often just leaves packages at our front door.
And, for those who haven't seen my stuff enough to remember, mine's a 38mm SS, med lt pink MB, ordered at XX:03 on 4/10.
I'll post some pictures later today (hopefully) after I have it.
My large brown modern buckle (ordered XX:12) has just gone PFS and CC charged in the last 10 minutes! I might be able to resume the life of a sane, normal person in the next few days instead of being a crazy, obsessed loser like I have been for just over 5 weeks

You beat me! Congrats! We all want to get on with our lives and get off these forums, believe me. Hopefully my :06 one will join yours tonight.
When I saw mine updated to PFS I was hoping you would have good new too...not sure how I beat you but I'm sending good vibes your way so that yours changes to PFS shortly too
Wow, I wonder what the difference in weight is. By all accounts, the 38mm Small Modern Buckle is 73g, whereas the 42mm Milanese is 91g. However, my 42mm Milanese shipped in a package that was 2.7lbs whereas, the 38mm modern buckle is 3.1lbs! What gives for the huge difference? Guess I'll find out today when I get it. It's probably nothing. LOL
Also, the modern buckle is coming from a different place then the Milanese loop did. Can't wait for my wife to get it.

Not fair! No change on my 00:10 still. Congrats on yours though!

I ordered the same watch as you at the same time and I'm still processing# damn Apple and lack of UK deliveries!!! (Happy someone is getting the pink MB!)
