Apple Watch Order Statuses Shifting to 'Preparing for Shipment'

Apparently everyone gave up or received their watch. I'm still waiting. It was nice seeing all the updates.
There are still some waiting... My 42mm SG arrived yesterday (ordered at :05:46), so I figured my wife's 38mm SG that was confirmed at :07:02 would take til midweek to even get charged since there were still some :05 and :06 people waiting on both sizes... But hers just charged and went preparing for shipment in the past 4 hours, and looks like a few other people are seeing movement as well, at least on the SG's. There are some SS's still waiting though.
May 13-27 ship date - preparing for shipment! Sport 42/SG/Black Sport Band

Congrats I'm still waiting. By any chance does it say where it's shipping from. I've been trying to make sense of the delivery system and the flights from China while I patiently wait. In guessing Anchorage Alaska.
I'm still waiting too. Question. Does anybody know whether you lose your place in line if your credit card charge fails? I've just had my credit card number replaced due to a possible unauthorized charge. So now I have a new number. Will Apple allow me some time to resupply a valid cc when the charge fails and if I do, will I lose my place in line? I'm afraid to call Apple and they put in a new order for me with my new cc and instead of modifying my existing one.
Man, this thread sure did die down quickly.
I am still in Processing phase...
42mm SG Sport
Ordered at 2:04am CST on April 10th
Confirmed at 2:08am CST on April 10th
This is really frustrating.
I was just charged 5 mins ago. Should be soon for you.
nah you wont loose your place in line; call apple up and you should be good to go; same thing happened to me on and i still got mine on launch day.
Just some time data for you guys reference.
I ordered four 42mm Apple watches at 4/10
Three Apple Watch Sport: Space gray (12:03am PST), Green (12:09am PST), White (12:10am PST) ---arrived at 4/24 together
One Apple Watch Stainless Steel: Black Sport (12:04 PST) arrived at 4/30
The time of order is according to system email. All orders were told to deliver between 4/24-5/8 by Standard Shipping.
Apple Watch Sport Space Gray had the highest demand as I predicted, it showed to deliver until 3-4 weeks only after 4 minutes of pre-order launch.
All of my shippment are original from States, last time my five pre-ordered iphone 6/6 Plus were all from China directly

I ordered the Apple Watch on April 27, Sport 38mm Space Gray Black Sport, it has been saying "Ship June", changed without email to "Ship 3-5 weeks" delivers "Jun 1 - Jun 12".
I only knew because I checked my Apple Store app.

Did you order all 4 on the same account? I ordered more than 2 and they cancelled them 2 weeks later without warning me.
I ordered exactly the same model on the same day as you for my Kid. I've got mine already but I didn't anticipate he would love it so much he'd ask for one so I bought him one. Is good to know I'm not the only one that ordered one that day. I'm in Colorado btw. Idk that, that means anything but.
This is part of what the email reads : "Your Apple Watch Sport is expected to ship within the next 3 - 5 weeks.
When your order ships, you will receive a Shipment Notification email with tracking information." It so happens to land on the same dates per Apple App as well, but I hope sooner. We'll see.
