After having a Friday 9/25 delivery date for over a week, this morning I got a dreaded "a late flight has caused a delay. We will update the delivery date as soon as possible". It was 50 mins late arriving from SDF (Louisville) to CLT. Thankfully, somehow still made the truck for delivery. Now have an out for delivery status, and just watched the UPS truck drive by with my watch on it. UPS routes always blow my mind, but I totally understand prioritizing business deliveries. Usually he doesn't make it back around until between 4-6p. So now I wait.

For what it's worth, my order that was scheduled to be delivered between Oct 9 - Oct 13 moved to "Preparing for shipping" overnight. I just went with a standard 44 Aluminum and Sport band (so, nothing fancy), ordered on 9/19. Hoping this means I have it hand sometime next week!

I initially had a date of 9/23 now it’s showing Monday for my se. The real kicker is I have an Apple store 20 mins from me and I thought it was closed. Well it’s open and the watch I want has been in stock this whole time. I’m trying to find my inner patience lol.

Congrats! My watch has made it to the local fedex center - 30 mins from my house. The problem with this fedex depot they can FOREVER to make a delivery - I might get it during the day or after 6 pm.....it's a crapshoot with them.
The point is you are getting it today! or else you want to wait till Monday. Post some pictures later. I hope to see you for an iPhobe launch. This is just the beginning.

My AW is on schedule for delivery today! After days of seeing no movement in Shanghai it cleared customs yesterday and then somehow made it to Kentucky without ever being scanned departing China, in Alaska, or clearing customs here - so those of you waiting without scans have faith! This beats by 4 days the window (9/29-10/1) promised at delivery.
Can you share ur scans please
 
Mine is at the final destination scan. All it needs now is to be loaded onto the delivery truck! I couldn't get to sleep last night with all the craziness of yesterday.
Special THANKS and SHOUT OUT to you. You have put in the HARD-WORK by tracking the flights back to back. I’m sure you are tired. However, you are getting your watch today too. So, that’s very exciting and I’m happy for you. I really hope to see you back here again in couple of weeks for an iPhone watch. We are going to need you. 😇😇

Ordered a 44mm graphite a few days ago with black sport band and had an estimated time of Oct 8-15. Well, it shipped via FedEx and will be here Monday!

I was smart not ordering any fancy new bands and just getting the boring band haha.

The advantages of having an apple store 10 minutes away. Bands for days.
You can always order the fancy band separately while you enjoy your new toy.
 
Honestly, this has been fun despite the shipping craziness. Still on the fence on if I will upgrade to the iPhone 12. But either way, I probably drop by those boards to live vicariously though you all that are ordering. And offer moral support and dumb jokes LOL. But yea, not sure what the next apple purchase will be (iPhone 12 or iPad ) but these boards are awesome.
