Apple Watch Series 2 Pre-Orders! Shipping Estimates, Order Time and Everything Pre-Order

Any 42mm AW2 SS/Space Black owners out there? I ordered my 42mm AW2 SS/Space Black with Black Milanese Loop on September 30th from the Apple website. Showing processing...which has never changed...for Oct 28th thru Nov. 4th.

Just wondering where the SS/SB orders are currently in fullfillment?

Thanks...

My series 2 42mm space black with sport band is preparing for shipment as of today. Ordered on 9/28.

Yes, I was starting to question if it would make the timeframe, but I think Apple has a pretty good handle on meeting the delivery date estimates.

Ha...what do you know! I just received a notice that Apple just charged my account for my AW2.

That's great! Must mean my watch should be shipping soon.

Can anyone tell me how long before their AW2 shipped after payment was received?

Thanks...

Ordered the 42mm Stainless Steel Series 2 with Saddle Brown Classic Buckle on 9/30 for a delivery on 11/7, shipped 10/17 for an est. delivery of 10/21 via UPS Worldwide Expedited. I can't wait! :D

Apple is still showing 10/20 but it missed today's flight, arriving just 17min before scheduled departure..

So much for 10/21... expect delays at export scan in Shanghai. UPS now aiming for 10/24.

Is your Watch traveling all over China and Japan? Mine shipped 10/18 with an original delivery date of 10/21 and now it's moved twice 10/24 now 10/25. Seems like it's taking the longest route possible.
 
I went into my local Argos and picked up a series 2 42mm white in drama. I didn't want white, but bands from Amazon are cheap and easy to replace.
 
Went into the Apple Store yesterday assuming the AW Series 2 would all be in stock by now. Silly me. One month wait on the Series 2 still?? I'm late to the game and just wondering if there was an issue or just plain more demand than they can keep up with?

Wanted an AW Series 2 SS 38mm. Saw that people had better success at Best Buy. That model/size is not even an option at Best Buy. What gives??

You're absolutely correct. Woke up this morning to discover another day lost (due to not departing the same day of export scan). Looks like our watches are on the same aircraft. Efficient load planning on UPS' part. Instead of tossing our watches on a 744F in PVG and taking up space (for bigger/better Apple products?), they shipped it KIX to get on the smaller 763F to Anchorage.

I wouldn't be so sure until it clears customs. Took 3 days to leave Shanghai.

I think we are on UPS Flight 105 that left around 10:40 from Osaka and not flight 67 that left at 6:25.

Ordered my AW Series 2 space black stainless steel with the sports band on October 6th. Just got charged and status changed to PFS a few minutes ago.
Original delivery date is Nov 3rd - 10th but I will probably have it by next week.
 
I ordered a Nike+, 42mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black/Cool Grey Nike Sport Band and it still says Oct 28th for delivery, but it's not even shipped yet. I know patience builds character, but man I wish I had a tracking number. :oops:
 
Ordered Tuesday at Best Buy, cancelled with Apple and lookie what I get today...

I don't often buy online from Apple so this comes as a surprise tracking roller coaster. After departing Anchorage, UPS reaffirms its original scheduled delivery of 10/21 (hopefully for the last time). I aim to pick it up at the Earth City CC/Hub in St Louis tomorrow. Can't wait! :D

Tracking shows me an export scan happened a few hours ago, which should mean the package went through customs. The question that remains is how many cargo planes to europe leave Shanghai every day...
