My order that i placed on 9/15 for a S2 Silver/White 42mm is now estimated to be in stock on 11/1 from B&H which is frustrating since they have been telling me dates of 10/5, 10/7 and 10/15 for in stock dates. So about 2 months is the waiting time for this version...
SS 42mm with white band.
Ordered 4th Oct. Arrived by Courier this morning 14th October.
10 days from order to wearing.
Thats way better than the website says stores in Australia will have stock, about 3 weeks earlier.
Now to learn how to use it.

FYI, in the cart when you go through it shows a delivery date of November 2-7. That doesn't match up with the 7-10 days on the product page I'm also seeing.
Yeah its strange because delivery to stores for pickup is showing as the 4th November which is totally outside the 7 top 10 business days. Apple support couldn't explain it and were about as much use as a chocolate teapot
Replying to myself for those that care: Got an email from Apple saying it will arrive October 28. I ordered about two weeks after pre-orders opened.
I ordered the Nike watch the morning of Sept 8th and I show a delivery date of Oct 28. I can't wait!!
I have my Silver Stainless Steel Series 2 and love it!
My wife has a used Series 0 Sport she got last year at Best Buy (open box). Today, we preordered the Silver Nike + Series 2 with the Grey/White band at Best Buy. They are stating that the release date is November 11. Maybe they are being careful they don't run into the preorder issues they had before? I really hope she can get her new watch close to the 28th of the month though...

Cancelled my Ceramic today and picked one up from Regent Street in the UK. Simply stunning watch.
There's not a single one in the entire US! Actually I'm only seeing three available in Apple stores in the entire world...Florence, Toronto and Barcelona!
Yeah this one appeared in Regent Street yesterday and so i kept an eye on it and reserved it last night. Regent Street is the uk flag ship store that underwent a major refurb and reopened yesterday so I am wondering if Apple sent some stock of in demand watches and phones as part of the opening strategy.
Ordered the 42mm Stainless Steel Series 2 with Saddle Brown Classic Buckle on Sept 30, shipped this morning for an est. delivery of Oct 21 via UPS Worldwide Expedited. I can't wait!
Apple is still showing Oct 20 but it missed today's flight, arriving just 17min before scheduled departure..

I got sick of waiting, and on a whim checked Best Buy's website. Delivery for Thursday, Oct 20th on a 42mm space gray with black sport band. Originally ordered through Apple and was still showing a pending shipment day of 3-4 weeks with delivery 10/24-10/31.
Don't let me down Best Buy!
