Pretty cool too, as others have noted ... In my apple support page, it shows the serial number already. Just had to name it.
Got a tip for us?

First off, I wasn't following the forum last night so congrats on finally moving forward!
Sign up for MyUPS and that's all you need to do. They require your phone # and address so whichever they use for updating is there.
They have an iPhone app as well and it automatically populates with your pending shipments.

Here's hoping they continue to process and update over the weekend!

38 SG sport finally preparing for shipment. Texas, 2:02 confim email. Hoping for Monday delivery. CC charged sometime last night. Anyone else getting movement this morning?
Just got the notification from Apple. Watch has shipped and will deliver Monday. Crazy that they are moving on the weekend.
AWESOME!!! I was actually only watching this thread until you go yours dude..lol
I'm so happy for you man!!!!
Preparing for shipping. FINALLY! Unless it actually goes out today, I guess I won't see it until Tuesday, but at least there's a light at the end of this tunnel!
My watches
Hey All,
I ordered two,
42 Stainless with Black LL (mine)
38 Sport Green (wife)
i Didn't order these until the 12th, and fully expected them to take until June. The 38mm Sport has already been received (and my wife is faunting the hell out of it!
That being said I don't understand the reasoning behind the shipments either, but hers shipped from inside the US so it doesn't look like that model/color was very popular by the 12th at least.
Mine is still processing with no change to anything thus far, still says june.

I'm also in Toronto same watch - 42mm SS BSB status changed to ship at 8:53 AM EDT. APPLE says it will deliver in April 29th, tracking is not availbe from UPS at this time. UPS needs to upload the manifest. Hoping for a Monday delivery! Good way to start the week
Chatted with apple this morning. Got my email confirm on 04/10 at 3:06 am et they said they received my order at 6:45 am et. Delivery for 04/24 to 05/08. No charge no change anyone else get this kind of time from Apple for order received? Is this typical?

It has been talked about in another thread that the Apple reps are incorrect on the times they are giving. Everyone is saying that Apple uses military time (00:00:00) PST. The Apple rep I chatted with this morning said my order shows 5:56 on their end, which means they received the order on their side at 5:56 a.m. PST. But this other thread has many people saying this means they received it at 00:05:56. So not 5:56 a.m., but 5 minutes and 56 seconds after midnight PST.
They told me the same thing. I placed my order at 1:03 MST and they received it at 4:05 am PST.
I just chatted with a rep myself asking if statuses will be updated over the weekend and was told "Yes they can be updated during the weekend since the warehouses are working around the clock."
According to her, my order was received at 12:12:48 pst so my confirmation email is the mark and not the time I hit submit in the store.

You should really follow the other thread. It has MUCH more activity than this one (this one has died off a lot in the past day or two), and they have a lot of information that comes through about when planes are scheduled to arrive, who is getting notices, etc. It is at https://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=21122394#post21122394
Still "in process", card not charged.
Lesson learned--You're wasting time by getting up at 1150 PM Thursday Night to put an order in at 1203 AM Friday and getting a confirmation e-mail at 1207 AM.

Lots of us learned that lesson, unfortunately. I'll be content if I receive mine by Wednesday of next week, but I'm honestly not really expecting that. Very saddened by all of this, but if the biggest worry I have in my life right now is when my $700 Apple Watch is going to arrive then I guess I have a very blessed life. In fact, I guess we all do.

In the other thread, a few people have been following the plane routes very closely. Mostly, it looks they go from China to Anchorage, and then from Anchorage to Louisville. From Louisville they are dispersed around the country. One of the main guys who was following said that it looks to him like the charges and updates to accounts seem to go out once the plane lands in Louisville.
Has anyone in LA, or CA in general, who ordered a 38 SG gotten there watch yet? And if so, what time did you order? I'm 12:04:37, and I just feel like I should have seen *something* by now.
Thanks brother I really really appreciate that. Good vibes coming you're way. That's a good dude right here people.

See this is what I want to know. Can I leave preparing for shipment over the weekend?
Where you charged or preauthorised I though I was charged turns out they only preauthorised my debit card for value of watch then when it's ready to be shipped they take money
