Mines out for delivery. I saw a UPS truck outside and got all excited... but nothing yet...

I'm in an apartment complex so I get to watch the UPS truck do circles around us - usually they hit us at the end of the day then head home. So lol, I won't be surprised if it is 8pm+. (Mychoice window is 1-5pm - almost always it is 6-8pm+).

Same.... we get a few Fedex and UPS trucks throughout the day unfortunately. Its a mystery on which truck mine is on!!
 
I was indecisive and stupidly waited until Friday to order my S6. Anyone else in this quote window seeing their orders pulled in?

I'm not optimistic since it's quarter end this week at Apple and it's unlikely they'll pull in quotes en masse unless they're still trying to hit a revenue target.

I ordered Red 40mm on 9/17. Original estimate was OCT 1-5. Just changed to Shipped with delivery on 9/28
 
I just got an EXCEPTION text from UPS and the website info says it's "EXPORT SCAN" in Shanghai. Weirdly, too, my credit card hasn't been charged yet.
 
Still at Processing. Ordered less than an hour after the event ended and the store reopened and was given a delivery window of Sept. 28-30. Haven’t been charged yet either.

Typically the UPS driver will hand you your package if you walk up to the truck and provide the necessary info, but given UPS’s current Covid protocols, I would probably let him do a contact-free delivery. Couriers particularly have been under a lot of strain since the pandemic started.
Lol I wouldn’t actually do it but I’m having fun imagining myself chasing him around trying to flag him down. It just arrived!!! Woohoo!!
 
Anyone else with an October 14-21 timeline? I'm hoping for earlier but not holding my breath.
Third Wave here. My estimated date is Oct 1 -8. My guess that this batch will ship once the current ones get delivered. At least I hope so! Not sure how many more sleepless nights and anxious days I can take. :)

I ordered as soon as the store opened, but changed my mind later. I originally had ordered the AW6 blue with a blue braided band size 7. I was concerned about the sizing, so changed to a regular deep navy sport band and blue 44 mm case. I ordered the braided loop separately in case I needed to exchange it. The band is now due Nov. 18 - 25.

I thought I would be OK with the delay. Turns out I'm not. I've been anxiously hoping for an early shipment. Maybe release day. Hey, I was wildly optimistic! Then hoping for early this week, but my card hasn't been charged yet, nor is UPS showing any shipment. 😭

Curse you Apple for making me want my 6th Watch so much. And to think I may have to go through this next month (?) with the iPhone 12.
 
I just got an email from UPS claiming an exception due to Apple volume:

They may move the dates up. People have been receiving their orders early.
You’re not alone. I guess the majority of the second wave is waiting with you. And no plane scheduled by UPS can be found at FlightAware departing from Shanghai in the next hours.
the bar has 24hrs service though. Cheers.
