Somehow I was able to get a cellular space grey 42 from Verizon with delivery this Tuesday. Nice thing is though Verizon I get free activation and 3 free months and no restocking fee in two weeks it I don’t like it

I ordered from Best Buy and have an expected delivery (in store) date of 10/13. But I noticed that if you choose to look at available watches for pickup near you, and find a Best Buy Mobile, they have some in stock. The ones within two hours of me only have the rose gold right now, which I don’t want, but I’m going to keep checking a few times a day to see if they get any space gray (the one I really want). The other, regular Best Buy stores in the same area don’t have any cellular AW3’s.

Apple Watch Series 3 - 42mm Cellular Gold Pink Sand Loop

My first order from ATT was canceled. I submitted a new order on 10/3 with expected ship date of 10/16 - 10/23. And the wait continues.
 
Just ordered my series 3 Nike 42mm through Verizon. It says ship date is 11/8. Does Verizon take the money right away or when it is about to ship?
 
Weird my Verizon order was just declined even though A) I have the money in he account and B) I ordered it on a payment plan
 
My 42MM SS Milanese just shipped yesterday. Ordered it via ATT on 9/22 around 10:30pm. I should have it in hand tomorrow. The promised ship date was between 10/6 and 10/13, so ATT delivered as promised.
 
I don’t think Istocknow works or Apple has received no 42’s cellulars at all this week in the entire state of AZ

I was thinking the same thing. Looks like SS AW aren't really moving or in. Some people are saying that they snagged them when they hit in stock, but there's been very little changes to the SS stock over the last five days. What's even more strange is that the same pins that were there about three-five days ago are still there. Makes me wonder if it's not refreshing?

How does my package go from China to Tennessee back to China?

It’s working. One of the local Apple stores got a 42mm SS LTE Watch on Monday, and I called the store and checked the app to verify. It was the only store in this state that got one last week. There just doesnt seem to be much SS stock at all right now. I managed to get one from Best Buy Mobile late last week because I was obsessively checking istocknow, Best Buy, and Target throughout the day and got lucky. But the Apple stores themselves are only getting aluminum watches right now, and not a lot of those.
 
Well I was able to clear my order up with Verizon so it should be here Tuesday. I’ll hold on to my series 2 SS until I’ve decided the 3 is worth keeping

Yeah, that seems to be the case but thanks for reassuring me. :) May I ask when you checked and saw the hit on istocknow? I'm sure all stocks refresh/add at different times but I'm hoping for just a little insight for just a little hope.

I signed up for notifications from iStockNow, so they sent an email around 8:15 am last Monday. It was the only one that store got, and I got no other notifications the rest of the week. I’d try checking early Monday morning to see what turns up.

Just pulled the trigger on a dark olive loop 42mm SG sport w/ lte from att says it will be here between 10/20-10/27 now we wait

My s0 sport screen got messed up and Apple tried to charge me $200.... why would anyone pay $200 to fix a s0 when you can get a brand new one for a few hundred more. S0 ain’t even worth $200 let alone a used repaired one.

Super bummed that none of the Stainless models are out yet. Thinking I’ll just order one when I get the iPhone X ordered but definitely wish their supply were more available.
 
Woot woot. Just got charged for my SS w/ white sport band S3 watch. I ordered it on the launch day (not preorder day) with a delivery date between 10/20-27. So I got lucky or maybe they are ramping up production of the models?

As @DotCom2 said, it's because the flight crosses the international date line (when you're going west to east, you go back a day) - this is Fedex's tracking system trying to keep everything in chronological order (they really should just use UTC....but then most customers would complain about that) :)

UPS's tracking shows actual, not chronological, so often your packages appear to go back in time when they come from China. :)
 
Ordered SS 42mm with Soft White Sport Band on 9/21. Showed Delivers 19, Oct - 26 Oct by Standard Shipping. This morning order went from Order in Process to Preparing to Ship.

Congrats! Did you order the 42mm or 38mm?

42 mm. I was able to pick up my wife a S3 sport, and I am impressed with and jealous of the speed of the device. I can't wait to have an Apple Watch again. I sold off my series 0 in preparation for this model. It's been emotional.
