LOL; item arrived in ANC (Anchorage) but its not 9:09PM there, so I'm not sure if this is time-travel or what. BTW--mine is on there as well :) And yes, I pre-ordered from Apple (quickest pre-order yet..less than 3 minutes after 12:01) I used the Apple Store app on my iPad (i'd already saved the item to my favorites with my credit card and everything). That app really does rock btw.
That has been the pattern in the past when I have preordered from Verizon. Last time mine didn't move from processing until Thursday and I still got my order on Friday.

Hmm I have a packaged that popped up in florida via USPS. I don’t think verizon uses USPS. surely my watch from Verizon must be in transit somewhere....
 
Mine has been sitting in Louisville, KY since Monday. Hoping to see movement tonight. If not definitely tomorrow as it is scheduled for a Friday Deliver.
 
My delivery date is the 22nd and it is still in Suzhou, China with the same "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" status for the past few days. I'm thinking it should start its journey across the ocean sometime today on the way to Southern California.
Same exact situation here. Mine needs to make it all the way to the east coast. Let me know when you see movement with your package. I will do the same.

anyone that was on flight 83 a couple days ago still showing that it departed Anchorage and "never" landed? Lol...i just want them to scan the pallet, dangit!! just so I know it's in KY...even though I know it landed and it's there. I just like seeing it in the tracking updates ;)

I’m in this group and still don’t have an arrival scan… anyone see any movement yet?

Exact same here. It's likely you won't see any movement until early Friday morning. In my case, the watches currently sitting at WorldPort in KY won't leave until about 5 AM on Friday morning, at which point they'll go to the distribution center an hour away from me via plane, and then to my local UPS hub 10 minutes away from me via ground vehicle.
 
Any Verizon preorder updates from anyone yet? Still nothing for me. Looks like there is movement for the folks preordering the iPhone 8 judging from their thread.
 
Apple put the money back on my card I am worried. I have a instore pickup for 9-22 at 8am
 
UK ORDER

I placed my order for ‘Apple Watch Series 3 GPS + Cellular, 42mm Stainless Steel Case with Soft Sport Band’ within seconds of the Apple Store (iOS App) going live (despite the item having a 2-3 week delivery date, which I assumed was an error); I have confirmed this order time with an Apple Representative (live chat): “... it’s showing as order processed at 2017/09/15 08:02:16 GMT...”

I checked delivery dates for all available configurations of Apple Watch Series 3 immediately after placing my order. The ONLY configuration which was not available for delivery on 22/09 (at that time ~08:03 GMT) was ’Apple Watch Series 3 GPS + Cellular, 42mm Stainless Steel Case with Soft Sport Band’.

I received my confirmation email at 08:02 GMT which confirmed that the ‘Items to be Dispatched’ will be dispatched in ‘2-3 weeks’, with a delivery estimate of ‘9 Oct - 16 Oct by Standard Shipping’.

This Apple Representative also stated that: “... I’ve checked and all versions of Apple Watch were available for pre-order for delivery in the UK on the 22nd...”

I asked her to confirm this, and she responded: “Yes! All configurations were available (as I checked with my colleagues here to be sure).”

As of 22:00 GMT on 20/09/17, my card has not been charged, and my order has not progressed.

The Apple Representative did go on to say that: “...we will be working to prioritise orders in the time that they came in, so if we can get this order out to you faster, we will!”

I am in the same boat, "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" since 9/16, nothing since. As the day goes on starting to get a little concerned, agree that I think it almost needs to start moving by tonight to make it here by Friday.

Same situation here. Hopefully they start moving soon.
 
They didn't "put the money back" the pending charge fell off. They won't actually charge you until their system shows your item has shipped. The pending was just to make sure you have the funds to cover it.


Thanks. Mine is instore pickup on 9-22-17 at 8am but they open at 8am. I wonder when I will get notified.

Ditto with my wife's Apple Watch. It's in the same, sorry state.
 
Well everyone. I am headed into my holiday of the Jewish New Year. This was a fantastic experience for me and I do want to let everyone know that the Watch is fantastic. You are all going to love it.

If anyone wants a text update the minute the watches move, send me a PM. I have just a few minutes to set you guys up!
