Apple Watch Series 3 Pre-Order Thread

I preordered my Space Black Series 3 and it’s still in Memphis today... hoping it hits FL tonight since FedEx says it’ll be here tomorrow by 8pm

 

Finally got a chance to see the 42mm stainless model in person today...so nice but the 3 week wait is a bummer! Debating whether I should just wait and order one with my new phone in a few weeks. Ugh!

 

The two Apple Stores here have gotten a decent number of aluminum S3’s, but only one stainless steel watch between them. I guess a lot of people buy the less expensive aluminum models, so Apple doesn’t ship a lot of stainless steel stock directly to the stores.

 

Mine is supposed to be delivered to Indiana today and is still in Memphis.. seeing your post I’m hoping they just haven’t done anything yet with our package... I’m going to be mad as hell if they have lost it though..

 

i have to say the battery life is excellent. I can go for an hour run with GPS and go all day and still have 35% left 24 hours later.

 

When is the best time to check the Apple site for purchasing to pick up same day..if hey get them in stock

 

Ooh so ours must be in the same shipment. Something tells me it might be coming directly to our neck of the woods from there

 

Christmas is coming early!!!

 

Well it has about a five hour drive to my door. It still has plenty of time to make it but I’m not very hopefully since there has been no movement for 24 hours.. I’m off to work hopefully I come home to Christmas...

 

Mine is on the truck for delivery now; now I’m hoping it arrives before I have to go to work at 3pm

 

FL here too. Mine went from Oakland to Memphis to Tampa and is on the truck this morning at 8:05am for delivery by 4:30pm is what Fedex says.

Let me update that! Fedex just arrived!

 

I’m so darn impatient. I can’t wait any longer!! Cmon Best Buy.

 

Does anyone know if you swap your AW for a different one do you have to activate the data plan all over again? I really like the Nike+ with Black/Pure Platinum Nike Sport Loop but if it's going to be a nightmare setting up I won't bother.

 

I feel sorry for the Tmoblie people. Mine is out for delivery and I ordered from At&t late last week.

 

thats insane! i ordered on 9/22, im jumping ship from tmobile and been with them for 10 years, f*** that!

 

I placed my order on the same day with T Mobile. They had the nike apple watch 42mm in stock yesterday, so i cancelled my pre order for the normal apple watch and got the nike plus edition, same size and same functions, just different band and extra watch faces. It shipped today for delivery tomorrow via T Mobile.

 

Does anyone know if FedEx will deliver on Monday since it's Columbus Day?
EDIT: Just saw on FedEx site that they WILL indeed be open on Monday the 9th Columbus Day for anyone else interested, so YAY!

 

might call and do that

 

Woo hoo finally!! Glad this was a short day at work. Setup was a breeze...

 

FINALLY, someone takes possession of a SS! CONGRATS!
When did you order and from who?

 

thank you for letting me know that, i did exactly what you did and i should have my watch by tuesday! woot woot!!

 

I ordered 9/15 around 730pm from Apple.com I’m loving it!!! Talk about speed upgrade from the “OG” Series 0!!!

Omg tell me you got your watch before work that would be a long night at work

 

So pretty much it's 3 weeks from time of order.

 

From Apple. It sounds like others here have gotten it sooner from other places. I saw a 42mm SS Series 3 on Target's website yesterday that was available for expedited delivery TODAY. Of course, it was gone pretty quickly.

Target has a 42mm Space Black Stainless Steel Series 3 if anyone is interested. There's only 1 left.

 

Yes but my original shipping date was 10/13 to 10/20. So I got mine a week early..
