I haven't seen this asked yet. For those of you who have seen shipping status changes, are you finding out via notifications from Apple or is it simply from refreshing your order page?

I paid with ApplePay, so I got the notification on my phone when my credit card was charged. Then I just checked the website every 15 minutes or so until I saw it change to "Preparing for Shipping"
 
OMG

Guys!!!

I placed an order, 30-45 minutes ago for a charger. Estimated delivery was mid to late May...

Immediately changed to prepare for shipping and NOW ITs ON ITS WAY with tracking!!

Lol what the hell kind of luck is that!! My watch may not even be here by the time my charger I ordered an hour ago is!!!!

Hahahahahahahahhaa Poop poop poop F!

Just had the exact same thing happen, quick.....you and I preorder Apple watch 2s and they will arrive before our Apple watch 1s!
 
Just got of with chat support about whether they'd possibly deliver tomorrow (Saturday), and he said no - Monday at the earliest. For those wondering. Like me.

42 mm SG Sport

LA, CA
charged this am and changed to preparing for shipment. No tracking number yet.
 
Did anyone have any updates on their orders today? With all of the planes landing last night I thought there would be more movement.
 
Got Mine this Afternoon

If you are still waiting for the Space Grey and you ordered early I'm sure it will come soon. I haven't worn a watch in a long time, but I can honestly say it is the most comfortable watch I have ever worn. The box was surprisingly heavy. Here are some pictures to tide you over....

Oh now that's just wrong!!! LOL

Congrats!
 
Well, Apple just canceled one of my watches. Apparently you are only allowed to purchase 2 but Apple failed to notify me of that fact until 2 weeks after the order.

I talked with Apple Support and they said that I can re-order it but I would be put to the back of the line.

They didn't even give me the choice of which watch I would like canceled, they just randomly chose one.

I'm not feeling the Apple love lately...

Yeah, that's pretty lame. Sorry for you.

They probably cancelled the one you wanted...
 
I made an account just to post on this forum!

I'm in san francisco, ordered two minutes after the pre orders went live on the app store application (42mm Space Grey Black Bland) and I still have a processing status!

It is what it is, but just a little disconcerting, as I've ordered past iPads and and iPhones (that were available to pre order online) and have never seen a backup like this!
 
Is that two per household or two per email/id?

They just said 2 per account. I asked them where it says that and they said it pops up when you place them in your shopping cart. I ordered from the applestore app on my iPhone and I didn't get a "pop up"

Furthermore they allowed me to order 3 on the same account and didn't disallow it until now.
 
YOU GUYS!!!!!! I just got my status changed to preparing to ship!!!!!!!! You GUYYYYYSSSSS!!!!!!

12:04:08 42mm SG sport LA. Holy crap holy crap holy crap.

Update!!!

Just changed to shipped! No date on there yet but I gotta think it's Monday.

Charged this morning & changed order status just before 8 am pacific.
 
App store. Pretty sure website wasn't up by then. Could be wrong. Have been pre-ordering on app store for a while now - always the fastest.

Got it, so this setback has nothing to do with ordering through the app store apparently. All based on size and model of watch. Very surprised, but not complaining.
