It actually seems likely. The iPhone seems to be shipping at .8kg. That's about a pound and a half.

And how much is the shipping Watch weight?
[doublepost=1473972046][/doublepost]I logged onto apple.com to check my order and saw my order was delayed. (Lucky for me it'll still be delivered tomorrow).

If your order is held up, better check apple.com, as the apple store app didn't show me this.

Mine was saying ships in 6-8 and processing with a Sept. 26th-28th delivery. Still has those times, but my card was just charged and it's changed to preparing to ship. 42mm Space Gray Series 2 with black band.
 
My SS 42MM with brown leather band estimated for 9/26 - 9/28 just changed to "preparing for shipment" and they charged my credit card.

And read this, my wife's 38MM Nike+ Edition order, which was made separately under her Apple account, was just charged to my credit card, but it stills shows as a October shipment date. Is this normal that Apple is charging my credit card now if it is not shipping until late October?

I wonder how long until we get them? I am out of town beginning of next week :(
 
I like that optimism! I mean.. I doubt it... but hey, crazier things have happened. Maybe Saturday, why not right?
Yea I wonder what the time-frame is from the preparing to ship step to the actual shipping of the package is.

Mine just did as well! If only my phone would do the same!
 
Another 42mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band
Card charged and Preparing to ship. Still showing 6-8 days 26th-28th.

I have a Stainless BLACK with Sport Band that just did the same change.

I wonder if they're in USA and we could get them Friday or early next week from China?
 
Card charged, Preparing for Shipping.
Still has a date of Sept 26-28, but my experience has always been less than a week after Apple charges me, so maybe I'll get a nice surprise.

My card was charged and status updated to Preparing for shipment. Date still says Sept. 26-28 for delivery, with 6-8 days and standard shipping. Which is contrary to what Apple support told me today. They said all pre orders are shipped with expedited service.

I ordered a 42mm SS with classic brown leather band.

6-8 days was Apple's estimate for when it would start the process of shipping (not the shipping time)
Standard Service is expedited when it comes to pre-orders.
 
And from past experience, the estimated ship time (from order to ship) doesn't update it will just go from Preparing to Shipped when the label has been created.
