Apple Watch Order Statuses Shifting to 'Preparing for Shipment'

[ddkkpp]

my ss milanese is now preparing for shipment to canada.

The surprise is this tho:
Spacegrey sports model that was due in 4-6 weeks is also preparing for shipment:d:d:d

please be true for me as well please be true for me as well!!!

08:01 order in the UK (38mm Sport, blue), still no movement from Apple or Barclaycard

 

[Camusrieux]

Yep same order time, exact same model. Haven't been charged and no status updates on the order. So maybe they're going by models?

I expect I'll be behind you. 42mm SS, black sport band, 12:05 PDT. Guess we'll just wait.

I have an order confirmation for 5:03pm (3 mins after launch of pre-orders) yet mine won't arrive until mid-May because apparently leather straps are too difficult for Apple to have ready in time for their first major product launch.

I'd actually feel more positive about the whole situation if Apple just fessed up and, in a press release, explained why some models weren't ready for launch.

Well said.

I don't think we'll see anything until tomorrow or Wednesday unfortunately, although that means we will be that much closer to Friday!

I'm in the same boat. Hopefully it will change soon.

My fugly watch (Sport) is coming (prepared for shipment). My beautiful watch won't ship till June I thought I would like the Sport one, but after the try-on appointment, I ordered another one (SS), but it won't ship till June

Be happy that you're getting anything on Friday, there's enough of us who have to wait till May or even June to even get a watch at all
I'm sure there are plenty who would gladly take your 'fugly' watch

I'd really like some proof on this. My order still says it's processing. #

I agree, seems strange considering I'm in the 4/24-5/8 and still haven't received anything yet.

 

[martinctv]

Still processing for me. 42ss black sport strap 4/24-5/8. Nothing on the Barclay card either. Those that get preparing for shipment please say what state or country you are from.

Same and same. US, 12:05.

 

[zhugzug]

I placed my order at 3:04 AM EST... just seconds after it slipped to the May 13-27 delivery window. I'm really really hoping that I can still get in on this first wave!

Me too, it's actually very disappointing that it slipped to this date after only 3 mins.

 

[transpo1]

Same here.

Same and same. US, 12:05.

42mm SS Black sports band ordered at 3:05 and nothing.
Also 42mm SS link bracelet ordered at 3:03 and still May 4-6 weeks

How did this guy get a preparing for shipping? Found it on imore.com Sorry I meant appleinsider.com not imore.com

 

[Nimijneb]

My wife's 38mm sport is preparing for shipment and my 42mm space gray sport is still processing. They were both on the same order and they both were given the initial 4-24 to 5-8 delivery date. I'm thinking hers might come before mine.

Exact same situation for me. I'm going to be so jealous if she's wearing hers before mine even gets here.

Preparing for shipping...

[Twimfy]

Does anyone have any news about UK shipments?

I ordered mine at 8:02am and have been told nothing apart from delivery by 24/4-8/5

There's been no change for me either :-(

June Shipment

Mine was preordered on the 10th and I must have missed the cutoff because it says shipment in June. Really hope it changes..... would love to get surprised before the end of May. Want that Watch!
