My Graphite watch still stuck at processing. Not sure if it's the band or the watch. Feel like its going to be delayed.

Original expected date was Thursday 09/24/2020.
I pad $5 yesterday to have it changed to Wednesday 09/23/2020...
Now it's showing expected delivery date to be on a Friday 09/25/2020. So much for paying that $5. I think they are behind and it's too busy at the airport. Shipping wise.
Might be the band. It's odd it's still stuck in processing. If I was you, I would be on the phone with Apple and see what's going on.
 
Anyone get their graphite Stainless Steel on time? Or experiencing excessive delays?
MY SS graphite 44 is still on time. According to Apple it should be with me by Monday Sep 28 (originally Sep 25-28 window). As it is already in Germany since this afternoon, I am confident to see it some days earlier.
 
Yep, I called theirs international shipments number and asked for a person when the automated prompt came up.

800-782-7892

Thanks!

Update 5:05PM EDT: operator says “yes, still planned delivery for tomorrow” [sounds good, but then that’s what MyChoice has said for two days] then I get this: “your package is in Arkansas.” Hmmmm. KY to VA via Arkansas? I think she saw AK (Alaska) and misinterpreted as Arkansas. So, I know no more now than I did 10 minutes ago.

Hope others are getting better info. @TiggrToo your call sounds like my experience. @Gantris you probably got the one good CS rep!

Back to praying...

I swear UPS operators have been trained in the art of not giving information out. Just spent 20 minutes arguing with one idiot about where my package was, and he constantly told me that he had no proof that the Anchorage flight was even going to land at Louisville and wanted to know why I thought that.

Eventually, after much pushing and nagging he tells me that the flights destination was indeed Louisville…

So he feels that it may now be waiting customs clearance, hence the lack of a scan, My hope is it can do that, then get on a truck for the 2 hour trip to the Queen City on I-71…

This is the same configuration I ordered and delivery dates I show. I'm still stuck at "Processing" also.

Thanks! Guess we are all in the same time window. I rly hope i get it by Friday.

It's just a waiting game at this point. I believe once they have it in stock delivery date will change.
 
Just got off with the UPS International people. They said they have been having issues with Apple and shipments coming into the U.S. from China because of COVID-19 and customs issues. My first order on the app says it departed Alaska 9/21 at 11:01 PM, but apparently that’s not the case. It is still there, but I think he said it should be arriving in Louisville tonight if I understood him correctly. He also said they are working to “expedite” shipments coming from Alaska. It was honestly hard to understand him, so I’m not completely sure what the issue was or where my package is. 🤷🏻‍♂️

UPS93 is currently en route to Louisville and should arrive in 5 hours. Hopefully my watch is on that flight.

iPhone shipping/tracking in a few weeks will turn out to be a nightmare!!!!

Thanks for the effort and info. That AWNike at my  Store is starting to look better and better! 🤪
 
Andddddd that’s a wrap folks! My Series 3 has been passed down to my girlfriend, and I am now a proud owner of the Series 6! Got here about an hour ago. So much faster than my older S3, and the AOD was the biggest reason for my upgrade...and it delivered! I’m going to be picking up a new band for it probably this week, I’m thinking of possibly getting both the Milanese Loop and the new Solo. All in all, I am very happy!

Can I ask if it’s DHL or UPS and in which country the tracking starts for you? For me it’s DHL and Eindhoven in the Netherlands, still no update until now tho.
It's with UPS. Tracking started at Jiaxing (China) via Shanghai, Incheon (South Korea) and then Cologne.

I wouldn’t get the Milanese. It will scratch your watch.
 
Its either this one or the Polar Air Cargo plane directly ahead. This UPS plane has no arrival location. PO718 is heading for Anchorage.
