Apple Watch Series 3 Pre-Order Thread

[xCarbonSteelx]

I wish I remembered to set my alarm so I could be getting it on Friday. I’m jealous watching y’all track your watches. Hopefully those of us in later shipping windows get ours a little earlier than expected!

Couldn't have said it better! Most everyone here is talking about their Watch being shipped, I'm sitting here waiting for my card to be charged.

I would also like to add that it's DEFINITELY plenty of time especially with my experience last year and made me believe UPS makes **** happen.

Last year, when I woke up at 3am and preordered the 7+, a bunch of were on the same pallet from China but then there was a typhoon so they diverted from China to Taiwan and then to Japan and Hong Kong. It was insane following the UPS tracking. I kind of wish I took a screenshot of it. Might be able to find it in my older threads on here. Anyway...our iPhones were basically taking a tour of Asia. It was less than 1 day before launch (I want to say some crazy amount of time like 19 hours or something) and we all kind of lost hope that ours would make it to Alaska and then KY and then to our local distribution centers and into our hands. Not only that, when my iPhone tracking DID show it made it to KY, it said it missed the KY > DC flight and my package would be delayed. I went to bed and woke up & pulled up tracking (hey, gotta have hope) and turns out, UPS commissioned another late flight out and my iPhone was at my distribution center and being held for me to pick up.

Oh yeah! I completely forgot about that - my iPhone 7 was stuck in that mess too! Kudos on the memory!

I remember that fiasco! Mine was held in Korea due a weather delay or something like that. Good times.

Now it might be held in Korea because of something else...

Dont worry... UPS and FedEx have this whole cargo moving thing down to a science - as long as it's on its way out of Asia by Wednesday you should have no issues!

 

[jacksterg51]

Just chatted with UPS, looks like there may be some delays....

 

[CjonesHouston]

I want my Watch now.

Not sure? Do you mean just workout stats?

I mean all the Nike faces and workout software. I would guess that it isn't likely, as I was saying, I'm Just thinking out loud!

My watch left Alaska yesterday about 1pm and hasn’t been scanned since then. MIA

Mine still says preparing to ship; however if you choose track by reference and input your phone number & country and zip code it might show you where your watch is! I did that, and its in louisville, KY. It says it'll be delivered Friday. My wifes watch is still in shanghai and she ordered 4 minutes after my 3:02am order. Rest assured, if you have a deliver date of 9/22, you will get your watch 9/22. If you're getting 9/22-9/27 it'll most likely be delivered a bit late, but you never know!

You have to use the desktop site.

It pulls up on my iPad. So you enter phone number United States and the ship to zip correct? Do you put a 1 in front of the phone number?

Just area code and phone number, all one string. If that doesn't work, try your web order# (Wxxxxxx) minus the last 2 digits.

Here's the whereabouts of the space black 38 I ordered for Apple:
