I got in immediately at 3:01 and ordered a 42mm black SS with link bracelet. Got my confirmation email 20 seconds after 3:01. Still 4-6 weeks. I don't think this one ever started with a launch day availability. And now they're showing out through June.
Got a tip for us?

Ordered!
I was able to order the 5 I wanted! And booked an appointment for 12:15pm. The Macbook says ships in 1-3 days though. It was disappointing that none of the watches said available for in store pickup. Angela is ruining the fun experience of going to the store

These are clearly BTO but it's not saying that in the description.
3/4 of a trillion dollar company is acting like a kickstarter company. You give us orders, and CC info, we will ship to you in 4-6 weeks.
Folks, these things have not even been made yet!
wow, 38mm stainless steel white sport band that I ordered just 20 min ago slipped to 4-6 weeks..thanks google chrome!
Ordered 42 mm SS with standard black band 2 minutes after 17:00 in Australia and received the confirmation for 24/04/2014 delivery 1 minutes later
BTW; I have used App Store app on my iPad.
Does it say 4/24-5/8?
StockDelayed store
What happened. Read entries from back East said they got on and ordered by 3:01, yet the Apple Store didn't come online here in Arizona until approx 12:17. Ordered my SS w/Milanese Loop but delivery isn't for 4 - 6 weeks. I ordered it with 45 seconds after the Store went live. Bummer!

yeah i got a 42mm apple watch with the classic buckle, at around 1:03 mountain time thru the apple store app and says the same estimated delivery date.
Reminds me of late night TV infomercials... everything "as seen on TV" is always 4-6 weeks for delivery...
I ordered the exact same model, also in the UK, a couple of minutes after you. Received email confirmation instantly!
Messed up
I foolishly got the 42 MM white sport. I was in a hurry and did't realize there were more colors than the ones shown. Would love to have gotten the space gray or black. Oh well, 4/24/-5/8/15 estimate. Besides my error I still felt it was a painless experience. Might help if I actually studied more on the whole choice thing, rather than just the experience. I used my iMac instead of my phone and had no issues.

Got mine at 2:06 a.m. Central Time...
I set my alarm for just before the preorder time. The regular Apple site was down, no matter how many times I refreshed after 2:01. Then I tried my Apple Store app, and it worked like a charm - no slow-downs, no pauses, nothing. Took me about 10 seconds. Now back to bed!

I ordered through App at 3:03am and it was already at 4-6weeks, May delivery. So it didn't make too much of a difference.
the apple store app worked for me at 1:02-1:03 mountain, just like the iphone 6 pre order time, the website did not kicked in until later
Ordered my dad's 42mm SS Milanise first w/estimated 4/24-5/8 shipping.
Ordered my Sports 42mm Space Grey Black band w/estimated 5/13-5/27 shipping.
Email receipt times are 12:04am and 12:05am respectively.
Jeez, that's ridiculous for the Sports that within 4 min of Apple Store app going online, the shipping times slipped.
First world problems, I guess

May 13-may 27 for Delivery
I ordered as soon as the store came back online, around 12:35am (Yuba City, CA) and purchased Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band and got delivery date of 4-6 weeks. - Hoping like 6 Plus order shipping times were much quicker than originally quoted.
