Apple Watch Pre-Orders Now Shipping for April 24 Delivery

[Dub1ous]

No, I received no email.
Mine just changed from processing items to preparing to dispatch once they took the money.
24 hours later I got the dispatch email.
I've submitted a photo of the email, although awaiting the post to be authorized.

Okay, thanks for the info.

I officially give up on it being tomorrow. Wake me up when something happens with my order, Apple. Haha.

It has been preparing for shipment since Monday and my cc apple: pay) was charged then also. I checked the UPS site yesterday and nothing, but tried again this morning and got the tracking # (A UPS shipping label has been created)

Thanks. Hmmm, Pay. Wondering if that's the difference. My CC has not been charged.

One of the posters above claims one is shipping to his house in Southern California.

I tried to post a pic but for some reason it didnt work or Dropbox was being funny.

42mm Apple Watch with Black Sport Band ordered 08:02 UK

There is no Pre Sign For Shipment tab on my order

Does anyone have the presign option for UPS?
I don't know if my wife will be home to sign for the shipment

I have an SG Sport Black with May 13 - 27 estimate, but UPS is showing "Order processed, ready for UPS". My CC has not yet been charged, and the Apple order status still shows "Processing" items, but based on UPS, something seems to be changing.

If you divide the year into "early" and "late", then they certainly did deliver.

If you divide the year into "early", "mid", and "late" they they also did deliver.

If you divide the year into four parts, then name them (the first one MUST be "early", and the rest have to follow that theme, and it has to be something that is commonly understood), and then you can say they didn't make it.

My point is that they locked themselves into some sort of definition of "early," and April 24th is pushing the limit of what most people consider "early." So since they had some product ready they weren't going to delay it yet again. Naturally that will get some customers angry if they aren't in the initial rush.

Anyone with a "June" delivery who has seen any movement forward?

I have a June shipment and haven't had any movement. When did you pre-order yours? I placed on the morning of the 11th. I think a very small number of June shipments have moved. From what I can tell mostly mid May and later May have had the surprises. We may get a nice surprise in a couple of weeks though! Here's to hoping!

ty for your answer but i was looking for the 42mm (SS) stainless steel with the black sport band. SOMEONE OUT THERE give me hopeeeeeeeeeee! hehe upload your pic

Oh oops. Haha sorry.

 

[MacFinnley]

Delivery date for my Sports Watch was June. Now it's sent, new delivery date: tomorrow.

If you sign up for UPS My Choice you will get some options to make changes to the delivery, like to reschedule, have them hold it somewhere, etc... I don't think you can presign, but you might be able to go to a UPS Store to pick it up.

42mm sport white band.

Still shows preparing for shipment. Didn't get the email last night nothing at all. People with the same SKU that's ordered after mine (my confirm was 12:03) have there tracking number.

Now maybe since I'm in Southern California it's going Fed Ex? Idk I'm not going to wine about not getting it tomorrow but I am put off by others reportedly getting there confirms and they ordered the same watch and after me.

I'm in the same boat as you... same SKU, same location, 12:02. Been "preparing to ship" for 3 days, CC was charged 3 days ago, and no shipping notice. I've been doing product launches since the first iPhone and have never not been able to get one on day 1 if I wanted to. This situation is #.

 

[simtilver]

I wonder if any of these will be delivered today instead. Mine was enroute to NY from PA at 1:50AM...

 

[ObsidianKt]

Does this REALLY say that "all" customers should have their tracking numbers? Haha. I received my preorder conformation at 2:06 (central), which means I ordered minutes before that. MacRumors apparently isn't following its own comment sections, and hasn't noticed that most 42MM SS BSB preorders (the people who ordered within minutes of the preorders going live) haven't gotten a single thing yet.

Same here. Ordered at 3:04 EST. Stainless Steel, Black Sports Band. Still Processing. Feeling pretty disappointed at the moment.

What time did you order and what location are you?

Still processing

SG Black band 38mm ordered from Apple Store app, paid with Pay, confirmation email Apr 10 12.04am, still processing. Delivery estimate May.. I apparently bet on the wrong horse but nothing constructive I can do about it now.

 

[philipk]

Did those who are receiving this new message from Apple, pay for expedited shipping or just standard?

Standard free shipping

 

[kolizion]

I really think Apple lied to some of us. From what i read her there isnt a single person that ordered a Space Grey 42mm black sport band on april 10 in the first 5min that will be delivered on the 24th ... so no matters what was said on the confirmation mail or when we place the order one information was false since the beginning : WATCH AVAILABLE 04.24.2015 ... for this particular model that s false advertisement .... i wish a class action lawyer would be willing to sue their ass !!! to me this is the worst apple product launch ever !!!

Especially since mine arrives tomorrow.

However.... Something strange happened today.
I got my email saying your order has shipped. Received a tracking number.... Then they refunded my account.

No idea what's happening there.

Everyone is saying the 42mm SS BSB is the one with the delay but I'm seeing a ton of 1st rounders in the Milanese also stuck on processing.

Is it more to do with the SS model and less with the band?

[Bruklin]

Went from 4-6 weeks to getting it tomorrow !

But I do feel for those who are getting shafted
Makes no sense for Bands to hold up watch deliveries

I just got my shipping notification for my 42mm SS with black sport band at 10:35 Central US time.

 

[tarkeybear]

Wife's 38mmSS wblack sport band is shipping!

I'm in So Cal and got a shipment notification this AM 0735 Pacific time for the green sport that got charged on Monday.
My wife's 38 mm SS w black sport band is still pending, but I would expect a ship notification later today.
Looks like we may be firing "creepy heartbeats" this weekend!

Good luck to all you first gen watchers!

Her's switched from "processing" to "preparing for shipment" yesterday afternoon Pacific time. Got shipment notification 0834 this AM Pacific time.

At last, the circle is complete! cackle, cackle...

I have June...NO CHANGE! When did you order?? My delivery date is expected for me bcz I ordered after the golden :00 by several hours...LOL

 

[Treyt10]

I got a 42mm space grey sport model that I ordered 2 minutes after it opened. Yesterday it switched to 'preparing for shipment', and they charged my credit card. But I havnt got a shipping notice. Any thoughts?
