Unfortunately it is probably the Milanese Loop band that is the hold up. I wanted the Leather Loop from Apple and that made it where it was much further out, so changed to just the Dark Cherry Sport band.
Got a tip for us?

Anyone order Series 7 thru Best Buy?

My 45mm S7 Graphite Stainless w/ Milanese Band shipped yesterday (ordered within ~5 mins of release on Best Buy's site). It shipped UPS Ground from Georgia (I'm in California) and will be here on Friday. Seems like the stainless models were a few days behind the rest when coming from Best Buy.
I have a SS gold that will arrive today from UPS and I am in Las Vegas
Still saying mine will ship by the 25th, but that was before the Alum. 41mm Midnight color went on backorder at my local store. We'll see if that changes my ship date.
EDIT: Not a half a day later, all the buttons to change or cancel order are greyed out. Must be getting closer to actual shipping time.

You’re making me want to just drive 3 hours and pick one up at an Apple Store i keep seeing stock in. You ordered a whole week before I did too, so that’s yikes.
41mm Alum. Midnight shipped today with delivery by 10/25 (as scheduled).
Orded 45mm Graphite Stainless Steel at 8:08AM launch day. Still says "We'll ship it by Monday". Getting a little worried because I thought it would've shipped by now. And it still allows me to make shipping changes or choose store pickup instead.
So my 41mm Midnight GPS watch shipped this past Friday, but won’t be delivered until this coming Wednesday. Oh well. Can wait a few more days, I guess.
Nope. Bought with BestBuy card. However it now says it will ship Monday. And I the two options are now greyed out.
Well, UPS is really milking this delivery. Has been at my local UPS facility since last night (10/25) with a scheduled delivery of 10/27. Easily could have been delivered today, one day early...
EDIT: And now I know why. UPS can't be bothered to delivery my package; they'll have USPS do it instead...

I HATE when UPS hands it over to USPS. A lot of times my packages will go from "Out For Delivery" status to "Transferred To USPS" which means another whole day of waiting.
I've actually tried to go pick up my transferred package at USPS, which is near my house, and they are rude and too lazy to grab it. They claim "we haven't sorted the packages yet and can't get it for you." Mind you my post office is small and rural.
Yeah, it's not ideal @CoolBradG, but we have to deal with it. My heart sank a little when I saw the package - it was crushed in one corner! But when I opened it and saw the watch not hurt, it was back to normal lol.
Watch is really great. Perfect size for my wrist and it's almost weightless compared to my Citizen Eco Drive. Glad I made the purchase of my first AW.
