Apple was late. They were also about 5 minutes late on the pre-order.
The fact I know this and was staring at the clock in both instances makes me think I need to re-evaluate my life!
Got a tip for us?

Same here, I deleted the beta profile, restarted my phone and it hasn't come up yet. Should I also be seeing another iOS 12 update for my phone even if I installed the last beta which was the GM? I wonder if thats why nothing is showing in my Watch app...
I was on iOS12 beta and downloaded the GM. Not seeing any other available download so assuming that GM is it.
Download time went from 3 days to 6hours, so I guess it's an improvement. (1 gigabit connection btw)
How come a trillion dollar company can't handle the load? Saving money on transfer speeds is probably one reason haha

Cue the critics: "Apple has lost its way. Tim Cook is destroying Apple. Steve would never have allowed this. This is what happens when you put a bean counter in charge."
EDIT: I realize I've worded this poorly, but I don't mean to say that Glockworkorange is criticizing Apple this way. I was trying to parody an unspecific, stereotypical Apple critic.

Not sure how you teased any of the nonsense you wrote out of my post.

I didn't say or imply any of what you said. I just indicated they were late and then I made a self-depreciating comment because I have no life.

Downloading it to my phone now but I'm not actually gonna update my watch until I've closed my rings for the day.
Grr, this is frustrating. I cant download the WatchOS or the shortcuts app. Its almost like I'm still on the beta or something.
Not showing for me yet, I keep checking and nothing 
Oh hang on, I have a Samsung S watch

I was also on the iOS 12 beta and not sure how we're going to get the Shortcuts App.

I'm going to give this a shot
Yup, I was able to get the Shortcuts app but no watchOs
I got the shortcuts app through a directlink for it on Reddit.
Mine is saying 1 hour now. It was saying 11 days at first then went to 2 hours. Thank god but still 1 hour?
Carrot Weather now shows in the Siri face.
I can finally turn off the Weather data source to get rid of the Sunrise/Sunset info I don’t care about.

Question, will this bring the watch face with the additional complications to a series 2 or series 3? Or is that a series 4 only thing?
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. I have the last beta on my iphone and no update is popping up for my watch.
