You're good DualShock. We know what you meant !
In this time of crisis throughout the country unfortunately we have to use our words very carefully as to deliver our point clear and concise. I totally understand what you were trying to convey in the matter. You have apologized. The best thing that we all can do and learn from this is to be educated and move forward.
 
Third wave Blue 44 Cellular with deep navy blue sport band ordered 9-16 just shipped to CA. Out of Carlisle, PA, so no fun tracking shipment from China. Apple says Monday delivery. UPS says Tuesday. Either one - it's on the way!

This actually was my third order. I placed my first order within minutes of the event. It was for a silver aluminum with the braided blue band. Estimated delivery of 10 14-21. Then I decided I really liked the blue case, so changed the case color to blue with the same braided band and cancelled the first order. Mid November delivery. That was OK, as I wasn't really anxious for delivery.

But the next day I was anxious for delivery. Cancelled the 2nd order and ordered the blue case with a plain blue sport band to get it earlier. I also ordered the blue braided band separately. This turned out to be a good choice, given all the stuff about which size to order.

While I have been so jealous of ya'll getting your watches already, if I'd stuck by my original order right after the event, I'd still be waiting. :)

What do you guys recommend as far as a screen protector or case for the watch?
I use this during work.

I just noticed something. On the UPS shipping page it doesn't have my full address just the city. " Ship To Virginia Beach, VA, US". But on the apple page it has my full address. If the address was incomplete it wouldn't even have made it on the UPS truck right?

Interesting, I ordered pretty much the same config, but with the charcoal sport loop (velcro one), on 9/17. My estimated window is Oct 16 - 23. Still shows Processing.
 
First off! Thank you EVERYONE for being here. It has been an amazing journey this year. Traveling with you guys is very special and unique. I really hope to see everyone back when they pre-order their new iPhone. Once again, we will all be traveling from China 🇨🇳. I cannot wait to place my new order for the new iPhone.

The new Apple Watch is amazing. I’m going to be keeping the Titanium Version. It is so premium and exclusive. It feels like an expensive and high end watch.

I will wait for my 3rd watch to arrive in October. Best of luck to everyone out there and enjoy your new Apple Watch.

Once again, special THANKS to all who has helped with tracking the flights, watching the departure/arrival date/time, Info-mapping and so much more. 👏

Get ready, it is going to be pure madness. See you soon at the pre-ordering night for the new iPhone. ✌ 📱

You're good.

UPS doesn't want folks generating random tracking numbers to see what's showing up they can porch-pirate.
 
Woke up this morning to see that my Series 6 GPS+Cellular, 44mm, Graphite SS, with Charcoal sport loop is now preparing for shipping. I ordered it on September 16 and delivery dates were 5-8 Oct. Can't wait. Hoping it makes it by end of next week.
 
Okay it seems like everyone that shipped last night and had a delivery date for today got their by now. Mine is still on the UPS delivery truck (has been since 8:54 AM EST) it's 3:34 EST and still nothing. I mean it works out because I am still at work until 5PM but still lol. I might be the one to get mine right at the end of the day 9PM LOL.

You finally got it! 😀
That titanium is 💯
Also can't get over how great that Milanese Loop looks. I want one, but apparently it interferes with the compass so probably getting the braided solo loop at some point instead. Got the charcoal sport loop for now which is probably why I got it so fast.

Congrats on a great choice 👍🏻
 
Following this thread now: are those with October expected delivery dates generally seeing dates move up?

Ordered a 44mm SG Nike that’s expected last week of October, which surprises me because I’m seeing others say that the Nike watch is among the earliest to ship. Not sure how that’s the case. (Order to USA.)
I ordered Red AW on 9/17 with October 1-5 delivery dates. It will be delivered today 9/25.

Oh I definitely will, I'm just annoyed at myself for not looking into my local apple store before ordering online lol.
Our Apple Stores just reopened Wed.on a limited basis. They don’t have the Red watch I ordered so I am not tempted to go to the store in person. My black Solo Sport Loop will be delivered Sunday! Weird! Wish I could try on Braided Sport Loops but don’t want the Covid exposure.
