Have been hesitating to pre-order. So I was stalking the Bestbuy, Apple, and Target sites. I got up at 5 am this morning and checked Target, they had 3 Space Black SS 42mm in stock, I grabbed one and chose express shipping. No tax (DE) and free shipping. Keep checking Target, they have random stock popping up.

Thanks for this! Been checking stock here and there, was resigned to just 'standing in line' at Apple for the series 3 I wanted...

Checked Target on a whim and they had one more 42mm Stainless S3 cellular space black Milanese loop! Was going to get the rubber band one and get the link bracelet, but the milanese may tie me over until they're in stock.
 
Has there been any updated info about getting this as Walk ins at the stores?
I actually just called three stores to ask if they have any in stock, nope, all has to be ordered through the system. He said it would ship in 7 days and then said oh i'm sorry, they are back ordered until November! lol

i chatted with tmobile online and they said stores should carry them but i have called every store within 100 miles of me and all of them said they wont be having them in stores? soo who knows. they are all screwed up with their own information
 
It’s also annoying that you can’t just order them online. You have to call in. If I can get it shipped from Apple without that why can’t I do the same from TMobile?

I guess I'll stop by my store on my way home from work. It's around the time they get packages. Shrug
 
Mine is on its way!!!!!!!! Just saw the update and it will be here they say on the 4th but am hoping a little sooner. But I won't get greedy, better than waiting until the 13th! YAHOOOOOOOOO! Will update when I get it! All is good! :)
nice! Congrats! where did you order from?
 
Called T-Mobile to try and attempt to get free ov tonight shipping. CSR couldn't do it.

Nicely Asked if shipping of the Watch could be expedited, or at least give some insight as to when the Watch would ship.

Was told oct 2nd? Took it with a grain of salt, but if it does ship then, good.

Not holding my breath though. Lol
 
Shockingly I just got an order in at Target. Woot!!! 42mm space black stainless. Not canceling any other orders until I get a shipping notice though
Spoke too soon. Nearly 24 hours later and still hasn't shipped. Chatted with Target and they're telling me it's OOS...

can I make a suggestion for a band that I believe is better that Apple's link bracelet.

when did you place your order?

Literally around 11:30 PM Thursday when I read @Pedicone1211 's post. I checked Target , saw the watch, realized if I don't act now I won't be sure I'll be able to get my hands on another one this easy for the next at least 4-6 weeks.

Item is literally already at the local NJ/NYC UPS Customer Center already awaiting early delivery Monday... Crazy sometimes you win some or lose some..
 
For those who put in an order on 9/26 my delivery just changed from 1st week of Nov to 10/27 - 11/3

42mm
Silver Al
Seashell Sport

i totally agree. I actually just walked into my local apple store to see if they had any in stock. Walked out with a SSBS AW3 42mm :):). I am curious how reliable istocknow is because I've had notifications set and it still shows everything out of stock in my area.
