Apple Watch Order Statuses Shifting to 'Preparing for Shipment'

Bowieboy said:
Does anyone know if some sort of compensation could be claimed if Apple don't provide the Watch by the latest date given? I'm the 8th May...

I asked that with a representative and there are currently no plans as they hope to fulfill the orders by the date listed. However, she did mention that the delivery date listed is an estimate only, not a hard guarantee.

Well I just sifted through all the watches on eBay that are "in hand" that have sold or are for sale and what I've come up with is what we already know. The 42mm SS BSB is pretty much non existent. There were a ton of the Milanese loop black classic buckle and white sport band. The plus side is there are about 4 planes leaving anchorage to Louisville In a few hours. So let's hope there are some 42's with BSB on them.

I hope I'm on that one!

A friend of mine in Boston told me his order for the same 42mm SG bsb that i ordered got moved from a june ship time mid may. Apple must be expecting a large shipment of that model to come through soon so us in the 4/24-5/8 range should hopefully see our orders fulfilled, but i still think it'll be closer to that 5/8 date then then the rest of the stock will go to those who were bumped up.

Just looked it's actually 5 planes all leaving within 2 hours. But honestly i don't know what's in them. I've asked on here if anyone had any hard evidence that those are apple watch shipments but never received an answer. At any rate they are coming from the country of the factories so let's just hope there are some on there.
 
42mm Space Gray 02:05am

Nothing here in MILWAUKEE.

So tired of refreshing 3 webpages over and over again. First the bank, the Apple website and then the forums.

Also tired of posting details about my watch.... Essentials listed above.

Any other WI people get their SG watches?

Nope I'm in Milwaukee as well and I've run into someone from Brookfield on here too. To quote spaceballs, "we ain't found s@$!"
 
42mm space gray black sport band. Confirmation email at 12:08 from Miami, Florida. Still waiting nothing nothing nothing not even an email.
 
On that Google doc that's been going around there are only like 5-6 people from wi on it or at least that have said they are and they are all in processing mode still. No love for WI
 
Model: 42mm SG sport
Conf Email: xx:05:05 (5 minutes, 5 seconds after "opening", which really happend about xx:01 or xx:02)
Country: US (Louisiana)
Current Status: Processing Items

Originally May 13th-May 27th...order still shows that currently...but...

Got charged about 20 minutes ago, around 10PM CST 4-27-15 for the Apple Watch (I ordered apple care too, but haven't been charged for it yet it seems).

So, crossing fingers that I'm next in line for shipment soon...we'll see.

Your wrong. I study business. I know that stock constraints drive business while saving your own, however my opinion was clearly pointed towards Apple who are able to do so with all stock eventually selling. I'm not saying have 100,000 of each model, I'm merely saying that market research, of which Apple is good at doing, would have given them the stats they need for a next to accurate stock level.

SO. You think Apple should have SAT on a million watches and NOT collected money and not shipped ANY until they shipped them ALL? Really? Getting A's in Business?

2 planes just landed in Louisville KY. Should see some movement. Three more planes landing within the hour also. Hope some watches make their way to Chicago

----------

I just saw a ups shipping update page on eBay that showed a watch arriving in U.S. Ready for ups at 4:10 pm the flight landed at 1:11 pm. So the planes that just landed have about three hours each to process so hopefully some of us wake to preparing for shipping.....what's become of me I'm stalking planes full of watches now. Never been so eager to get something I'll want to get rid of in a year for the new one.....

Wow that's a productive post thanks for that!

All these people saying Apple should have had 3 million watches ready on day one are not exactly productive. It sounds like a bunch kids because the ice cream man ran out of the blue ones.

Apple has never had enough phones on day one. This should be different?

Right so you had the bright idea to come on here and wind them up.. That helps!

On a side note, my charger is on its way. Maybe I could wear that for a while until the watch comes !

This specific conversation thread would have completed hours ago if you had not commented on my comment.

This is my last comment on the subject. I will let the rest of you get back to accusing Apple of being a giant failure because their product is too popular.

Thank you for this info. I got charged about 4 hours ago and it still says preparing to ship so was wondering what the timeline was. I ordered Pink Sports 42mm. Hoping I get it within a couple of days!
