Apple Watch Order Statuses Shifting to 'Preparing for Shipment'

Madman8 said:
Congrats to everyone who is seeing movement. I have gone through this thread, 9to5mac, and a google Doc and here's what I have found,
Every 36-48hours a minute of ordering progresses for the SS and space grey. :03 began Wednesday and Thursday through Friday. :04 orders began Friday Night today they are starting to get to the later 04's and the early :05's
The seconds after your order are important because they are going in order. Only other styles or other regions could be the reason for later orders shipping first. I really think this is close to the protocol.

Interesting but I have heard of more than one case that entirely disproves this theory mate. For instance I know of 3 cases where people have ordered the exact same watch as me (42mm SS Classic buckle) HOURS after pre-ordering opens and have their watches on their wrists as we speak.

How does that fit into all this?


There is a huge lack of consistency here....

How do you find your seconds after your order?

that is some very good analysis however, my order for a 42mm SG black sport band confirmed at :03 is still in the processing phase and have not been charged to my CC yet... maybe i'm an anomaly, or apple skipped me over for some reason.

I think you might be off on your minutes. On the other thread I'm following (which now has over 6,000 comments), no one in the x:05 time has received any movement. I'm 00:05:56 myself, and haven't seen anything at all. Some x:03s still haven't received anything.

Can you explain

In pretty much every email system, you can find a place to "see full header" or something similar to that. I use apple mail and you can go to View->Message->either option will expand header info and you can see seconds there.

My guess is he's talking about SG BSB 42, since that's what he's getting and what a lot of people on here have been paying attention to. Obviously lots are looking for others. Could be wrong.
 
They dont update orders on the weekend i thought (unless ups/fedex had ur item prior to the weekend)
 
It is Monday here in Australia. I have a zero hour+2min order and still no change. Ordered an SG Sport. I think Apple skipped over me:(.

Should be soon. I'm just north of you in Sheboygan and my order was 2:04. Card was charged Friday night so I'm guessing yours will be early this week.

I expect as much. I pre-ordered so i could have it launch day however i do understand they saved themselves from any liability by making the ship date 4/24-5/8

Im not upset at apple i understand that availability drives demand but i would have preferred they announced a later launch or even pre order day so they could have had the numbers ready for shipping. Its better to exceed expectation than to fall short.
 
42 mm ss bsb 3:04 est

42 MM SS BSB 3:04 EST

so I've been processing since 4/22 what the heck is processing mean any ways??
i hope Apple docent choose to release a product like this again this is the first product that i did not receive on launch day :(

Lucky still waiting for any change to mine with a 12:03 confirmation.

It'd be a funny joke if apple was keeping track of how many times you check your order status and every time you do they make you wait longer.

Actually that's 3:05am EST, 12:05am PST. Not thinking today. That's still a couple of minutes after your confirmation. I'm not sure if they are shipping by when you began your checkout or ended it, as I had it in my cart very quickly but it took me some extra time to finish my transaction.

If they tracked my order status checks I wouldn't receive a watch until 2037. :)

Which model did you get cause I'm in Milwaukee and haven't gotten anything and I had an earlier confirmation than you.
 
When do you guys think I'll get my watch!?

Ordered April 13th
SG Sport Black Band
Central Time Zone U.S.
 
Well my wife has been enjoying her 38mm aluminum sport white band since Friday. Still waiting on my 42mm SG BSB. Ordered at the same time.10 min after pre-orders started . Sure hoping they start ramping up the SG BSB soon

It still says "processing: June"
Click to expand...

In guessing more towards the last couple of weeks in May. Orders now for the same watch still say June
 
Another night, another bedtime without delivery confirmation... Haha.

Leaving my iPad by the bed, so I can check it if I wake up in the middle of the night.

Is this really all I have to look forward to?

:mad::confused:
 
Ontario, CA, United States 04/26/2015 5:59 P.M. Destination Scan

My 42mm SG BSB Finally arrived in Ontario, CA and will be delivered tomorrow. Just one business day behind launch day. Not bad all things considered.

Hope you all wake up to good news tomorrow
