Just spoke to apple who say my card was declined and that I "should" of had an email telling me this, funny I didn't get an email, yet I got all other emails from apple!

If you have not had your watch I would keep on to apple if I were you!

So you got a confirmation email, but your card was then declined later?

Preparing for dispatch, UK London, SG 42mm, 8:04

Looks like things are finally moving for a few people. It's been a fun journey guys. Hope everybody gets theirs soon.

My watch is prepared for dispatch and it's only been 4 days since the launch day but it feels like it's been 4 weeks, not 4 days!!!

Hope all you receive good news soon.

With all the hastle of my card being declined I have been on the phone to apple for the last 2 hours, and the adviser who managed to take payment told me it "should" be dispatched tomorrow, however I won't hold my breath!

Just gone to Preparing for Dispatch

On of my 42 SS just got charged and changed to Preparing for Shipment. A second one, same exact model, I ordered for a friend at the same time, but on a different card, didn't get charged yet.

Same watch as myself!

How many seconds in 08:04 was it mines 08:04:55 so almost 08:05.

Glad things in the UK appear to be moving.

I have a 42mm Space Grey Black Sport Band
Order confirmation received at 12:03AM CST
milwaukee WI

I woke up this morning and saw it was changed to preparing for shipping, not sure exact time but when i went to bed at midnight it was still processing, woke up at 6:30 and it had changed, CC was charged, but it doesn't list the time yet as my bank just shows recent charges as pending.

Just looked now at 12:44pm CST and it has also switched to shipping! tracking number is listed on UPS now, but i don't have a date as their system still needs to update.

----------

My watched just switched to shipped... anyone know how long it takes to arrive as UPS hasn't updated their system. Just wondering if it'd be possible it'd come tomorrow.

Perfect then the info about the planes pretty much adds up. Six planes land and you got updates to preparing to ship. At least when the planes land we have a good idea that they have watches on them. So just for an FYI there are 2 planes inbound from China to anchorage then flights to Louisville follow. So much work for something that I know is coming. Is your watch coming from Louisville?
