42mm SG black sport band still processing and no charge.

I also ordered a 38mm SS loop and that is no preparing for shipping and that was place after the sport watch. so i have no clue what apple is doing.
 
I don't think we have a shot at orders updating tonight. For whatever reason, I know there are guesses out there tracking planes and what not, but orders only seem to update around 4:30 cts. Assuming the black sport band configured watches are the most popular as they were the demo units at apple stores wouldn't it make sense that they are already at the distribution centers? I attempted to make this post not another hypothesis but it looks like it turned into that. Another reason for this thought is that confirmed order times aren't updating in any particular order. There must be some reason for that.
 
No Charge, still in processing for the 42mm Stainless Steel Case with Black Classic Buckle in NYC

Weird, got a 42mm with 4/24 ship date still in processing (right now) while i was charged and preparing for shipment for a May 8 38mm... so I guess that the 42mm are screwed...
 
My friend lives 15 minutes away and ordered the exact same watch as me yet already has a charge and is PFS. He has a UPS expected delivery for Friday and I haven't gotten any updates. Super annoying.
 
38mm Space Grey BSB ordered @ 12:02am PST. Still stuck on "processing items". Paid with Apple pay via the Apple Store app. No charge on the card. 4/24 - 5/8 delivery :(

Same here. The guy I know not only ordered the same, but ordered almost an HOUR after I did.
 
How long can it take to mold some rubber watch bands using a prefab mold. I've seen them build a McDonald's from the ground up in 14 days lol. #
 
Omg can't believe it just got up to start a new day looked at bank account no movement, then I looked at my order.
Happy days , very strange no pending on my account (as yet)

42mm SS Milanese Loop. Credit card was charged on Monday. No change in status, stuck on "Processing." This is one of the most frustrating experiences I have add ordering an Apple product.
 
Yep...me too

42mm Sport, white band... Charged and stuck in preparing to ship.. The guy I spoke to at Apple, didn't CONFIRM I would get it, but- pretty much said, in his experiences, it's highly likely... What would an Apple launch be without a snafu, or two? :apple: :cool:

I love how in Europe it's "preparing to dispatch".. lol that sounds so much nicer.. Over here it's "yo.. your ***** about to ship"... then, again, sometimes...you don't get anything..
 
jordypaul I'm in the exact same boat. I'm in the bay area as well.

My wife's 38mm SS white sports band has moved to preparing for shipment.
 
I'm hoping we all wake up to an order update and a charge but I'm sure it'll be 9pm before anything updates...as long as I get my watch Friday afternoon I don't care but seeing everyone else get updates when I woke up at 2am to preorder and see no updates is very aggravating.
 
Anyone able to get an answer from the online chat on the Apple Store?

Nothing. I actually just had this told to me in an online chat.


With your Apple Watch, all we are waiting for is to get the fund authorized and settled with your bank. As soon as that happens, you Apple Watch will be shipped out!

Some banks do take a little longer, your order will most likely go into prepared for shipment by tomorrow and if it does not get to you by Friday, you will definitely get the Watch by next week!
