Got a 42 and 38 stainless for me and the wife. Used the app and got both in by 3:09 with 4/24-5/8 delivery. I had to make a last-second switch from soft pink to her backup choice of black sport band since the wait was so long on the leather.

I wonder if people who were suckered in to buying Apple Care were bumped up in line?

nope. that's paranoia.

 

[Bazooka-joe]

App worked perfectly in the UK and my order was complete by 8.02 but the web page was down for ages. App is always the way to go

From a business standpoint, it's smart but from a $200 billion in the bank standpoint, ludicrous.

They have ultimate buying power, machine time and everyone wants to lick Apple's butthole. There is no excuse for this. Either the watch is ready, or it isn't. It seems it is, indeed, not ready.

Honestly, this is probably the most simple device they have created since the mouse (parts/assembly wise) and they don't have any stock. I just don't get it.

Not sure here either. Perhaps the case or S1 chip is difficult to manufacture.

I didn't order, but I enjoy watching the scramble.

 

[amro]

Yeah I don't think the black sport had much supply

I think it's the most popular one. Just slightly above reasonable price point.

 

[chumpy34]

Can't make an appointment. Says service is not available and to try again later.

same with me and then I get email that says I made 3 appt I canceled two and have just one, I probably could have sold the other two online!!! lol

 

[iPad Air]

Poor white, pink, blue, and green Sport models....no one is ordering those.

 

[KentMages]

Wasted a minute looking for personal pickup, order slipped to 5/13-5/27

Hey guys im confused i didnt see the iphone 7 up on the store? how do they expect to sell any iphone 7s when they arent even showing up in the store???


worst launch ever

Well I just preordered the 432GB iPhone 7+ aluminum space gray sports edition model. It cost 399.99 plus 1/4th of my soul. Should get it by April 30, 2075

 

[perreo-intenso]

I was able two do three appointments

 

[drwebber]

Got is at 3:02 ordered the SS with link. 4-6 weeks. Maybe Apple will surprise us and ship early.

 

[losta]

I ordered a stainless steel and a sport on my iPhone about 12:02 pacific. But still wondering how to mac an appointment?

 

[jamesjingyi]

I believe the blue sports band is now at 4-6 weeks as well.

Yeah I saw the others for delivery on the 24th but the Space Grey is so much nicer imho. Ugh why do they have such constrained supplies, its an Apple product, its going to be popular...

Has anyone seen a space grey Sport in the wild yet? Haven't seen any videos..

 

[chumpy34]

Did you order two at the same time? For some reason I couldn't see how to do it so I ordered one and then the site came up and I ordered another and two extra bands.

one at a time...and my touch id wasn't working on the first sale

 

[Edd.Dantes]

I bought the SS to pass the time

I accept cash donations to the me fund

The rich don't get (and stay) rich by being careless. I'm sure they scaled production based on careful analysis.

damn, an SS 42mm already sold on ebay for $1289.

and the guy called it an iWatch in his listing. Shake head..,

I wonder how well Apple predicted the demand for the Space Grey sport colour. From the general feel of the replies here and how quickly it's shipping slipped, that's the one everyone was after.
